Beautiful French Dresser...


I've had this beautiful french dresser in my inventory
(along with a whole lot more dressers).  Since I've decided to move 
my customer orders to summer only...I'm 
starting to get to the inventory I've had.
Finally going to start putting out pieces in my own design
for sale.
This particular one is made by Drexel in the Riviera 
style.  Here is the before below.





Had to fix 3 drawers because they where hard to open 
and close.  I always always make sure my pieces
go out in excellent working condition.


I didn't like that wave pattern on it at all.



So, I removed it.


It was nailed and glued on but came off somewhat
easy..ha ha!


Filled in the major scratches, not all because I wanted this 
to be a farmhouse shabby chic look.  I mean it's old
and vintage so might as well show it huh?



I had to prime it because it's cherry wood so bleed through!
Then I painted it in Joanna Gaines Magnolia
chalk paint color Shiplap.
It's a weathered white.


I don't make my chalk paint I just buy it.  I don't really
care how expensive it is, if the quality is good I'm good.
I find making it leaves a rough grainy finish.
I love smooth finishes.



Distressed edges and left hardware in original condition.


I price my pieces I paint by my experience I have
and my work which is really
good.  Plus the time I put into some of these, repairs, design,
materials, (paint is expensive), plus the age and style of the 
piece.





Details are amazing!


Looks so much better without those wave patterns.

Italian Provincial Rescued...


Found this italian provincial dresser and it was painted 
very badly.  I've had this for about 3 years in my 
inventory.  An interior designer Stacey Hutchins Green
that goes by "Green with Envy Interiors"
was designing a room for her client and 
picked this dresser.
She wanted it painted in a gray blue color.
I suggested Hale Navy.
She picked the semi gloss finish.
Also she picked the hardware.


We stripped it down and it took forever!



Repaired all the dents and scratches 
the best we could because it had numerous ones.


Made new holes for the handles.


Primed.



Then painted it in the hale navy.





She also wanted the drawers painted 
the same color inside and outside.





Looks amazing!!

A new client found my blog online, contacted me thru my blog,
picked out this mid century modern chest of drawers from
our inventory.  She loved my current inventory and our work.
When clients view my blog and close up 
pictures of our finish they always fall in love.  She was undecided on what
color, as this was for her small daughter's room.
So I picked a few colors from Benjamin Moore for her, 
Her daughter decided on this mellow teal.
