China Cabinet Completed

Hey guys!  How is your Tuesday morning going?  It's raining like crazy here in Michigan....you never know what the weather around these parts is going to be:)!!  Gotta love Michigan!!  I found this FAB china cabinet this fall at a garage sale.  I was absolutely over the moon in love with it and just knew I had to have it.  It was in great shape and still had the glass intact.  I scooped it up for a great price.  It did sit for awhile in my garage as I wasn't sure what color I wanted to paint it.

I decided to paint it white and then antique it with gray.  First of all I gave it a good cleaning and then a coat of primer.  I love using Kilz primer....as I usually never sand the piece before I begin painting it.  The Kilz primer gives it a good layer for the paint to grip onto.  I used the same paint/primer in one from my local Benjamin Moore paint store.  It goes on like butter and the finish is great.  I used a gray latex paint mixed with a glaze product to antique the cabinet.  Here it is after the whole process....I should really put in in my "booth space" for Shabby Gals....but I think it's going to stay awhile in my house and I will enjoy it for a bit.  Here are a few after pictures.....

Have a great day!!!
