This is now my fourth project, I built it as a gift for my sisters wedding, she was very pleased! She wanted something white so I went with a Annie Sloan chalk paint, which is pretty pricy I found out ($30-40 per quart) and her clear soft wax to finish. For the top I used a Drift wood finish and a weathered drift wood wax. Because is was a media center I just did fold down faces instead of drawers as in the plan and added some trim that I made on my router table to give it a more antique look. The Build was quite simple however the finishing to give it the right look took quite a bit of playing around!
