A Modern Farmhouse Sideboard
I just completed this fun sideboard project. The original piece had been traded in by a client, and though it was dark and dingy, it was in perfect condition. The solid pine was immaculate, and the piece had obviously been extremely well built. I had a vision for this sideboard as soon as I saw it- light and bright and modern rustic. I painted the case a soft creamy white in a semigloss for both durability and a subtle sheen. I replaced all the drawer pulls with super chic polished nickel ones. The top was sanded, stained with a mixture of cherry, ipswich pine, and gunstock and then sealed. I love the color of the top. So much dimension, so pretty. The piece is clean as a whistle and super cool. I picture it going into a kitchen, but it could just as easily work as a flat screen TV console, dresser, or sideboard. This one is going up on craigslist today, so let me know if you're interested. Before and Afters below!

ReplyDeleteVery pretty, love that you left the top stained. It looks a little like butcher block.
