Covering cheap wood in plaster

Building this cabinet has been one of those projects that wanted to get done for a long time, but it wasn't all that exciting, so we kept postponing it. Until now, it's finally done! I really enjoy the process of making stuff look old. Especially making wood and metal look weathered and old.
The stain on the cabinet door turned out a little darker than I wanted. But I was really happy with the weathered wood texture we got with the wire brush on the drill, to give that rustic antique look we wanted. I was also surprised how close I could get to a hand forged look on the store bought hinges!
We'll probably repaint it in the near future, as well as adding a shelf and what ever seem to fit best in there when it comes to storage.
If you're curious, we'll probably post an update on Instagram whenever that's done!
Thanks a ton for watching!

Great video!!! I learned many tricks from this & the storage came out great! My constructive criticism is the hinges are not correctly spaced out and also if you use this for Wifi signal usually you need spacing , holes on the side of cabinet or mesh so the signal goes through.

[@byferner]

Thank you so much Veronica! That means a lot to us! Yeah, you’re right. I completely forgot about hinges when I put the nails in there first. I was a little concerned about the WiFi too, but after a few tests before and after it’s no noticeable difference. It’s a pretty small apartment too so, maybe that’s why 😊 Again, thanks a ton for the kind words and constructive criticism! We really appreciate it!

Hi this is amazing what type of plaster do you use??

[@byferner]

Thanks! It’s an all around “house repair plaster” that’s a bit stronger than regular wall plaster if that makes sense 😄

[@FATMAC2]

I wish you had a lot more videos :(

[@byferner]

That’s the best compliment possible, thank you so much, really appreciate that! Working hard on making that happen and posting more consistently 🙏
