Vintage Metal Catalog Cabinet

I found this little nugget in Medford Oregon and my sister was kind enough to bring it down to me. 

This one was quite different than the wood one I completed a few months ago. I still visualized it with some hairpin legs tho. So, after much cleaning and sanding and priming, I ended up with:

Faux zinc anyone?? 

                     Custom made wood base so the legs would have something to grip onto.

I left all the insides and sides of the drawers as they were.  The top was given numerous paint treatments and I think it resembles zinc.  I used metallic spray, chalk paint, milk paint and tung oil. 

                                            

                                            I realize the industrial vibe isn't for everyone.  

                                             It's just something different that I enjoy doing.
