Buffet Makeover




A few weeks ago, we came across this adorable buffet that needed some TLC. It had some missing veneer, but other than that, great condition! Check out it's transformation below!


After spending several hours with a blow dryer and paint scraper, I removed most of the veneer from the top. The orbital sander took care of the rest. 




After everything was sanded down, I stained the top with Mission Oak stain, MinWax brand.


Here it is after 3 coats of stain. So pretty! Definitely one of my favorite stains ever...


In progress: 1 coat of antique white. Yikes!



3 coats later... Almost there! 


After adding the cabinet doors and drawers, doing some light distressing, and attaching the backboard, this beauty is ready for a new home!


Nice view of the top...


Close up of the distressed edges... Gives it some extra character!



Amazing what a little paint, stain, and hard work can do! If you want more information on this piece, contact us here
