Perfectly Chippy, Rusty, Crusty and Loaded with Farmhouse Charm Cabinet

If you love chippy and crackled paint this long forgotten cabinet will steal your heart. This amazingly white, chippy, rusty, and crackled cabinet is loaded with perfect farmhouse charm.   

One of my very first rescues.  It was sitting abandoned in a house that was scheduled to be torn down.  I was lucky enough to get to take some of the doors and windows and found this beauty, too.  Sitting all alone without a top, creaky hinges, broken door and the drawer falling out.  How could I leave it behind, when it is just so perfectly chippy and having so much vintage charm? 

My Prince Charming thought I was nuts, had completely lost my mind.  He has thought that on more than one occasion of the stray pieces that I often bring home.  He doesn't question things too much anymore and just goes along peacefully.  He is even learning to do some pretty good picking on his own now.  Anyway, we brought it home and unloaded it under the shed, where we keep some of our weathered lumber.  He even made a top for it at one time.  We used the top he made on another project and it still sat unfinished.  

Until.... I was out looking for something and what should catch my eye, but this amazing, long forgotten chippy, rusty and crusty old vintage cabinet.  I had the perfect spot for it and talked Prince Charming into carrying it into the shop and fixing it up for me.  

A few nails later and pallet boards for a top, I now have an awesome little cabinet.  It is now sitting in my new studio and I love it!  Loaded with farmhouse charm in all of it's chippy glory.
