Cabinet Redux, Part 1

In our search for pieces for the kitchen and living room, I found this little cabinet at GoodWill. It started out as what Martha Stewart might call a 'charming Aracuna egg green.' But I decided to refinish it an make it a nice warm pecan instead. Refinishing cabinetry is no easy task!
