Found this unremarkable little cupboard at the local thrift store. The best thing about it was the old duck painting that was used for the back panel.
I painted it (appropriately enough) with AS Duck Egg paint, distressed it heavily with 60 grit sandpaper, and added a brass handle that came off some other piece. I wanted the ducks and wood to show on the inside, so I applied Minwax Helmsman Spar Urethane to seal it.
It has a nice look now. . . would be very pretty with some greens hanging on the front for Christmas or could be laid flat and used to hold silverware or crafting supplies . . .
