This cabinet was made in two parts all from salvaged materials.  The lower section was made from old doors taken from a old farm house.  The top of this section is from a old tv cabinet as well as the base trim.  One of the old doors had a hole in it made by some kind of animal.  I wanted to use this as it was and had a friend carve a mouse which sits on a shelf made just for it on the inside of the panel.  The upper part is also salvaged from a rental house garage.  Trim from the old farm house was used on the top and old window glass from a factory near me was used in the doors.  All old paint was stripped and the pieces were then clear coated with several coats of clear finish. - CLICK TO ENLARGE
