FÖRHÖJA Kitchen cart with Wine Crate Fronts


Materials: FÖRHÖJA Kitchen cart

Description: Bought a Birch FÖRHÖJA Kitchen cart from Ikea.

We took the top of the cart and stained it with a dark stain from Home Depot.

We then went to our local wine shop and purchased the fronts of a few wine crates which we cut down to the size of the drawers and stained them with the same stain as the top.


Lastly we purchase a small can of paint in a blue color. To make sure that the paint would not chip, we added a little tile grout to make it more like chalk paint.


Let everything dry for a day and then sealed the top with a food friendly wax sealant.
