1. Painted the back panel a dark charcoal – Behr’s stealth jet.

2. Filled in the peg holes with white nail hole filler. Unless you’re up close, you can’t see the holes, which is usually a tell-tale sign of an Ikea piece.

3. Drilled holes to secure brushed brass hardware purchased from www.myknobs.com.
