SOLD!!!

BEFORE

I just finished this super cute RED 3 drawer dresser, just in time for Valentines Day!  

Roses wilt and die, but this dresser won't!:)

It has been painted out red, distressed, a walnut stain on top and finished with a wax for protection.  New hardware was also added, drawers are dovetail, solid wood and original casters.

It measures 32" w x 18 1/4' d x 29" h.  I love the shaker detail on the sides.  It's fun, farmhouse, cottage and definitely a statement piece!
$250

Restoration Hardware Inspired Highboy

SOLD!!!

I just finished this gorgeous highboy and once again, I'm in LOVE:)  I love, love, love this new grey color!  It is silky and has both a feminine and masculine look to it.

I have also dry brushed this piece with white to add some depth to the color and enhance the distressed washed look.  It has been sealed with wax as well for protection.

This antique highboy is in MINT condition.  Solid walnut, Canadian made, the drawers are interlocked and the factory tacks are still on the drawer glides so they slide amazingly.  It is immaculate inside, cute spindle legs and beautiful original hardware.

It measures 18" d x 44" h x 32" W.
$450

So the only last question is, who is going to take this home?!

In Progress

I revealed two new colors on my facebook page earlier this week that I just purchased.  I am very excited to try something new!  I think the grey is so rich looking and the red is farmhouse and fun!

These are the two pieces I am currently working on.  

This 4 drawer dresser is in MINT condition.  It's absolutely gorgeous.  The drawers are interlocked and slide amazing.  I love the spindle legs and the original hardware.

And this diamond in the rough is going to be a thing of beauty soon enough:)  The shaker detail on the sides and casters work perfectly for the farmhouse look I'm going to transform this into!

I'm hoping to finish up the highboy tomorrow, so keep your eye open for another post!

Miniature Dresser ~ Jewelry Box

I'm playing catch up once again with my posting.  I refinished this cute little vintage styled jewelry box for my niece this past Christmas.

I forgot to take a before picture but it was quite ugly when I purchased it.  However, I saw some potential...  It was in my craft room for several months cause I didn't quite know if I could use it, but then Christmas came and I thought it would be perfect for my 16-year-old niece:)  I love the aqua blue velvet interior.  I painted it out black and did a "tiny" bit of distressing.  It turned out great, but I don't think I will go into the business of refinishing mini furniture, as this was a little nit picky for my liking:)

Creamy 3 Drawer Dresser

SOLD

This lovely 3 drawer dresser / cabinet is for sale!  This piece is very versatile and can be used in any room.  It can be used as a nightstand, side table in a living room or even in an entry.  It's great because it doesn't take up as much room as a regular size dresser but you get the benefit of the storage space.

This has been refinished in a buttercream, distressed and finished with a latex satin finish for protection. New bronze / black hardware was also added.  All drawers are dovetail and slide well.  It's in excellent shape.

Measures 19" d x 29" w x 31" H.

Teak buffet gets a cottage farm transformation...

This ones sold already but I thought I would share yet another transformation with you:)

I will admit, it wasn't my favorite piece I have purchased but it's amazing what some paint can do!  I think this turned out fabulous.  It has been painted out black, distressed and finished with a dark wax.  I love the two tones, with the back of the shelves being natural.  I hope the owner is as happy with it as I am!

Some of my projects of the week.... Office makeover!

Last week I started working on a buffet and a desk for our office.  The office was already done, but I'm crazy like that, and like to change things constantly.  The buffet was free, you can beat that, a friend wanted to by our current desk and blue sideboard in our office and I had one that was passed onto us from my husbands father sitting in our garage.  So, project office began. 

I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but when I start a project for myself I usually try to power through it cause I have 10 other things that I want to start and I really don't love some of the refinishing process but it's always worth it in the end! 

One week later, it's all complete and now I'm on to the next project.  

I'm currently working on some side tables for my neighbor, I've got a slew of other projects around here, one or two pieces left in my garage that I want to finish up, and then it's a fresh start for the NEW YEAR!  I feel a highboy coming soon and perhaps something red?
