Antique Buffet Makevoer {Old Ochre + Coco}

This buffet was pulled from a wood working shop where it was being used as a workbench. The condition was awful, but the bones were good and I knew she had potential.
BEFORE
The structure overall was fantastic, but so much peeling veneer, missing detailing and cosmetic and surface damage.
AFTER
After lots of peeling of veneer and repairing of damage...this is the finished piece.
A few coats of Ochre Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.
Lightly distressed and antiques with dark wax.
Luckily the buffet had all the original hardware.
Smitten by the cute detailing.
For a complete refreshing, I painted inside the doors and drawers with ASCP Coco and coated it in a satin poly.

    I love it very refreshing. I actually have a piece I started with coco and old ochre and it just wasn't right for the piece so I out it to the side but I will be painting something else with those colors in the future on a dresser.
