One Beautiful Buffet

 This buffet had been stored in a very damp basement for a number of years.  The drawers and doors were almost impossible to open.  The large bottom drawer fell apart when opened. The backboard was broken and was just nailed together.

And this buffet is big!




You can see the nails holding the scrolled detail in place.



The bottom drawer had fallen to pieces, sides missing, bottom warped and split.



And here she is today. She looks like she is wearing ear rings!  



I gently distressed the buffet to accent the scrolled front detailing. 






The buffet is 66 1/2 inches long, 21 1/2 inches wide and 41 inches tall.

$350.

Repurposed China Cabinet



Originally this was a china cabinet.  I took off the door and opened it up thinking the piece would be good in a child's room or kitchen.  Everyone, and I mean everyone, asked if the shelves could be removed.  A lot of interest but no buyers.

So.....





















We had a beautiful walnut table top in the shop that we repurposed.  Isn't she pretty?  



The Cabinet is 41 inches tall, 17 1/2 inches deep and 33 inches tall.  The single drawer is 9 inches deep for lots of storage.
