DIY Buffet

This was a roadside rescue!   I spotted it one day on the way to the mall but didn't have time to stop.  I was pleasantly surprised to see it still there on my way home.   I pulled over put down the back seats and loaded it in.  I washed it down with Murphy's soap and let it sit out for a day.

Primed it with Zinsser's Bullseye 123.

Buffet - After

I like using Benjamin Moore Impervo Satin Finish on furniture pieces.  Here I used BM Black and BM Dunmore Cream.  After cleaning off the original brass handles I reused them.  I'm always searching for a piece to provide extra storage and this holds plenty of linens in the top drawers and glassware and dishes below.   Saving it from the landfill is an extra bonus.
