High-Tech DIY Projects: #diylikeaboss Look What I Found On The Curb When I Took A Wrong Turn

I get lost going around the block, this day was no exception but lucky for me I found a solid wood cabinet on the curb. I quickly pulled into the next parking lot and lugged this heavy piece of furniture to my car.

I immediately had a vision this could be turned into a sweet cottage cabinet with DIY white chalk paint.

To further enhance the simple look I painted the top and the inside of the drawer using cheese cloth and 3 colors of paint in brown tones.

After painting a base coat, I poured a dark brown and a medium brown into a pie tin and then got to work. I dipped the cheese cloth into the two colors and rolled it around the cabinet top and then the inside of the drawer.

After I completed this technique I used a protector for faux finised and put the glass on the top. The DIY white chalk paint was lightly sanded and waxed.
