Buffet Redo

Alright, no laughing at me from all you professional furniture make-over artists. I had this buffet that I purchased at a garage sale as a newlywed. It has always served a great purpose in storing my wedding china and all our great wedding gifts. I just felt the need to add some color to my extremely brown living/dining room. What better color than "Canton Green?" As you can tell, I'm a beginner, but I really love the way the color came out. I first painted a basic black coat. Then I added a few patches of crackle medium. Maybe, you guys can help me out. I painted my first coat of the final color and the crackle looked really great, but the buffet really needed a second coat and in doing so, I covered most of the crackle. Maybe I wasn't using the correct brush to get a good coverage on the first coat. Finally, I added a stain/sealer. What do you think?
