One more before and after to share with you all before we break for the Christmas holiday! Ā IĀ find these vintage cabinets to be so useful. Ā The Midnight Blue Farmhouse Cabinet is currently in my kitchen and perfect for extra storage.
Today’s cabinet that I am sharing was free – a client of mine was downsizing and gave it to me. Ā It’s a great little piece and resembles the farmhouse cabinet above but it is slightly different. Ā The Winter Metallic cabinet’s “before” is here: Ā 
It wasn’t in terrible shape but just was well, old. Ā And not in a good way. Ā I decided to have fun with it and used DecoArt Americana Decor Metallic Paint to give it a winter themed makeover. Ā The outside color is Pewter and the interior is Silver. Ā It took just two coats to fully cover the piece.
The stencil was a fun touch. The circular design gave me an inspiration of snowflakes.
I paired it with sparkly silver pulls and staged it as a liquor cabinet for the holidays!
It has sold and made its way to a new home in Virginia!
Was that wood on the cabinet called tiger wood? Part of the picture looked like that. I am 73 and my grandfather born in 1861 had a cabinet made of tiger wood that was HIS mother’s!! And now that cabinet is to be mine!
Hi Linda, this cabinet had been painted in a dark brown paint before I got to it. I believe the Midnight Farmhouse cabinet may have been tiger wood but it was very damaged and the paint actually improved it. Happy Holidays š
Beautiful color…. did you put any kind of wax on this? What color? did you age it with anything.. or is it just the color of the paint? Thank you
Hi Nancy, No, this paint does not need a sealer. The color is Pewter and I love it š Thanks and happy holidays!
OH it’s just beautiful Suzanne!
Thank you, Linda! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
