Antique White bookcase/cabinet

i've just finished this cabinet for a client. it got a light shabby this morning,
now it's all set to go off to it's new home.
it never ceases to amaze me what a few coats of paint can do to a piece of furniture.
wanna see how it slowly transforms coat by coat?
ok then!
here's the before....
after one coat of Zinsser- no before sanding needed either!
after 2 coats....
 
now onto the Antique White USA- 1st coat....
and the last coat. via instagram!
and here are a few more finished photos
so there you have it. so pleased it's finished. it's taken me all week to complete!

i'm doing a stall at the Ferny Grove Markets tomorrow morning. so off to price things and pack the car for a 4:50am start!

  8. This looks fabulous now its white!!! Love that you do two coats of primer!!!(It sounds much easier and makes allot of sense). Zinsser sounds really good, must try it sometime! Its hard to pass on white, so regal and you did such a beautiful job!
