Another dresser finished this weekend. It was beautiful, but the veneer was in bad shape. I opted to patch and paint with my Fuji sprayer. Such a smooth finish, really love how the claw feet turned out. The brass pulls look great after a cleaning.
Furniture artistically renewed. For us, recovering lost gems is not just a job.
When we signed up for an Annie Sloan chalk paint class nearly 6 years ago, we never could have imagined that refurbishing furniture would become such a big part of our lives. Not only do we love the work - from painting to sanding to staining (and re-staining, and re-staining), but we love the happiness our furniture brings to other people’s lives.

Took advantage of the rainy weather this weekend to finish the transformation of this waterfall dresser. I cleaned up the piece, prepped, and painted last weekend while the weather was nice.

Almost finished with this beautiful dresser. I wanted a natural finish, but the fine details were intimidating. This was the perfect chance to try soda blasting. There were several false starts but was finally able to make it work yesterday! I’m really pleased with the result!
Finally got around to finishing this bedroom set. The tops have a new coat of walnut stain and the bodies have been painted with General Finishes Coastal Blue. That color is a great match for this furniture! The pulls were black and grungy. I cleaned them up and they look great.
We came across this repurposed grandmother clock at an auction but weren’t able to get the winning bid. So we decided to make one ourselves. Got a grandfather clock cabinet on marketplace and transformed into it unique piece. Already have another broken grandfather clock to make another one.
Desk conversion into nightstands. This knee hole desk was ready for a new purpose in 2024. We brought it home and converted to nightstands / end tables. Its ready for a new life!
Conversion of golden oak table to weathered farm table. Probably the fastest I’ve ever refinished a table. Turned it around in 1 week to get it on the truck to NYC. Completed the chairs in time for the next trip.
5 drawer dresser updated from dark cherry finish to natural cherry. The clear coat really brings out the beautiful wood grain!
Just finished a project to convert an art deco vanity into end tables. Stripped away away a lot of the decorative veneer to get a simpler look. Thinking about doing another set, what do you think?
