but she needs a little work.
this buffet cabinet has been kicking around my house for a while now. i originally found it at a garage sale, painted it black, never did finish it but it still ended up under my TV some how??? it never really worked well as a TV cabinet so i'm going to repurpose it.
we finished the reno at my husband office but it lacks furniture, so i thought, why not freshen this lady up and give her a NEW home! and because everything is grey lets add a punch of color. my husband's first chose was RED!
so RED it is. i'm going to paint it RED and stain the doors. i hope she turns out the way i picture her in my head... if not, i guess i'll just chalk it up as a BIG learning experience.
*** yes... i'm painting it in my front entry way. it just seemed like the best space. i hope no one knocks at the door ; )
UPDATE* i thought it would be fun to add pictures after each coat to see the progress.
buffet after the first coat.
UPDATE*
after second coat.
