This is a Grandy inspired farmhouse entertainment center that was altered in size by making 84” long rather than the original 91”. I used a Kreg Jig to assemble the frame and attach the top boards. I sanded up to 320 grit then began to add the finish. It is finished with a dark walnut stain, that I let sit for 10 minutes and then wiped the excess off. Then pure white paint was applied which helps to contrast the magnificent dark grains. I then applied the one fiat of poly on the entire piece, and an additional two to the stained parts. I sanded to 400 grit between each additional coat on the top and shelves.
