Dining Room Buffet

After living here a couple of years and never really putting any effort into decorating the dining room we decided to try pumping a little bit of life into it. Patti added a second color below the chair rail and found a buffet at Pottery Barn that she wanted. We decided that I could probably build something reasonably close, so that was my mission on this project.

Hi, it was RustOleum #7777 satin black enamel. I decided to spray it on, so I picked up a cheap air sprayer. By the time I was done, the buffet, me, and everything in the garage had a nice coat of black paint.

great job, I really like the finish, would you care to share the details?

Thanks! I believe I used 3/4" for the base and the two vertical pieces on either side of the drawers. The side panels and the back were 3/16".

I like the project and the website. I was wondering if you used 3/4 or 1/2 thickness plywood?
Jason Smith26-Oct-2009 03:43
Thank you! I believe that I used poplar for the exterior wood and the plywood in the panels was......... I want to say birch, but don't hold me to it. It was just whatever cabinet grade ply that Lowes had in at the time, nothing too crazy. :)

Great looking buffet. What type of ply did you use for the exterior? What type wood did you use for the doors?

Any way to buy some plans from you on this buffet? Love the work and the photos?

Thank you! Best of luck with your project, I'm sure she will love it!

Well they say imitation is the highest form of flattery..

so for my wife's birthday, I'm attempting to imitate your imitation.

Very nice work.

Wow, Janice said you were building a buffet and that is going to be beautiful. Is it going to set along the wall opposite the pass through from the bar? I will check later and see what the finished project looks like. Aunt Janet
