cabinet

my original plan for the cabinet was to paint it purple and have the counter top and doors natural.

so i sanded like crazy to get all the old paint off. the big hole is going to be where the sink will sit.

the back of them got painted purple.

i rubbed the fronts/counter top with walnut oil. apparently, it's the best stuff to use.

i think it looked really nice... until i screwed the doors back on. whoever built the thing put the center door on sideways so the grain went horizontal. oi.

we guerrilla glued the top on

and painted the front turquoise. all the purple got a coat of poly. the turquoise got 2 coats. the counter top is staying just walnut oiled.

they played in the dirt while i painted :)
