Updated Antique Buffet...


This is a customers piece.  She wanted her antique buffet
painted white.  
She also wanted the decor in the middle removed.
John came up with the idea to flip it.


She also wanted repairs on the chipping veneer on each
side of the buffet.


We repaired the sides along with other areas we 
seen that needed attention.  
Tighten the top of the buffet because it was loose.



Sanded it all down, then primed it.
Painted in Benjamin Moore White.



Polished the tear drop pulls.


Sealed in a semi gloss sealer.


She didn’t want the inside painted.




Looks amazing!

Vintage Updated China Cabinet without the Hutch...


I loved how unique and gorgeous this buffet was.
It was a china cabinet but didn't like the hutch.
The hutch sat inside of it.  Before above.  I was going to keep the 
original hardware , but when I was taking them off one broke.
I decided to replace the hardware with the ones shown below.


Added a plank top.


Painted it in Joanna Gaines Magnolia
chalk paint in Regal Leaf.  A beautiful forest green.
All in a clean finish.  I didn't think any distressing would 
compliment this piece at all.



Stained the plank in a custom mix of driftwood and provincial.


I wanted a lighter more natural tone without too much yellow.


We added 6 new wood feet to give it more height.
It was 27" high from the beginning.  Now it's 32"high.
Also, extremely sturdy.



painted the inside cabinet also.  


Didn't paint the side cabinet areas.


Sealed everything in a flat sprayed sealer.


Available! Message if interested.

Duncan Phyfe Dresser in Clean White .....


I know i forgot to do a before on this one which
would've been nice because the top 
was horrible. 
I did a stained top.  I had to go over it with 2 
different stains because of a water mark that
just didn't want to come out.   





I did a pretty good job I think.
Sometimes we run into that.  Oil stains are the worse.
Takes way too much time up.
Sealed the top in a flat sealer.


Hardware I painted dark bronze.


Painted the body in a clean white look.








I removed a center decor piece because I 
didn't like the way it looked took away from the piece.
Now it looks more cleaner.

White Updated Rustic Dresser......


I was working on this piece last month that I 
got for free from a client.  I didn't like the previous hardware, so
I replaced it with new handles.
While I was working on it along with a custom client order
that was being painted the same color (multitasking!)
I received a message from a new follower.
She wanted a previous dresser I had just sold a few hours
before.  She asked if I would be painting anything
in that same style & color...I said yes and showed 
her this one I was working on.
Here is the before below.


Sanded it down.  Then primed it.


I showed her this picture of the handles I was putting on them.
I also showed her the before with the original handles.
She loved the look I was going for all she wanted was the hardware 
painted silver.  


Here it is painted in white using Benjamin Moore paint.





No distress I thought it looked better without it.
I liked the clean look on this particular dresser.







Here it is in her home, she loved it!

Raw Natural Look French Dresser....


This is the before below on a french dresser made by Davis Furniture Co.  
I was initially going to paint it but because we strip 
most of our pieces before we paint them.
But once it was stripped and sanded down I just couldn't paint
it.  The wood was to beautiful.  It wasn't a veneer overlay 
either.  This was solid carved wood.  I did replace that hideous hardware though. 


Stripped and sealed in the old handle holes.




I didn't stain it, just sealed it with a water based sealer.









Painted the hardware iron steel which is a matte 
slightly dark gray with some metallic in it.



This piece was sold a few days ago.
.  I finished it at the beginning of 
last month, but didn't have time to post on my blog.

Grey Dresser & Nightstand Set....


I painted this old dresser and nightstand set in a
chalk painted finish.  The color is a custom mix made from
annie sloan chalk paint.  Applied in a smooth thin no 
brush stroke finish.  
Here are the before pictures below.


I repaired the dresser drawer slides and the sides
 of the dresser as it was splitting.


Nightstand top had to be stripped.  The handle was missing on 
one of the drawers.  So I replaced it with some
vintage duncan phyfe handles I had.


I kept all the hardware original on the dresser.
I searched thru my hardware inventory to 
find the same color of the hardware on the dresser.



Distressed edges only.















In love.  Would look beautiful in a nursery or any room 
where space is a problem.
Currently available.  Message for info.
