Radio Cabinet Turned Entry Table

Auctions are our favorite places to find junk treasures! You would think that the regulars would recognize the potential in this solid wood vintage radio cabinet. Too bad for them, we took her home knowing she was destined for greatness.... ;)





Okay so she needed some help but when do I ever turn away from a challenge?
Annie Sloan Chalk paint to the rescue!





The bottom was painted in Graphite Chalk Paint and the top was stained in Ebony by Minwax.
Her new owner Debbie loved the original lion head hardware and decided to keep it. She went with burlap in the bottom insert.


And here is the final product!



I am so happy that this little radio cabinet now shines in her new spot in Debbie's entryway!
