Tv Entertainment Center
Turning a dresser into your tv unit never gets old! I found this piece and within an hour it was sold to one of my followers on Facebook for customization.
The friend I bought this from had taken the middle drawers out and painted it black. She used it for some time and reached out to me to see if I wanted to purchase it as she had got something new.
I added wood slates on the shelves to make them sturdier. As well as walls inside to finalize the piece. I moved the hardware holes to the middle knowing that this piece needed something heavy to make this piece unforgettable!
Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Mountain Stream and heavily glazed in a cream. We updated the hardware using Hobby Lobby brown metal knobs for a rustic chic look.

Retro Nightstand
I’m excited to get my hands on my clients’ parents retro bedroom set. We value and cherished items that are left behind after loved ones passing. Having their furniture refinished to match your style is just a great way to not only repurpose those memories but to also enjoy them!
First up, one of the nightstands. In total there is another nightstand, a dresser, and an armoire. Stay tuned in as I will be sharing those later as I get my hands on them, one piece at a time.
Refinished in a solid finish using Sherwin-Williams Black Bean. The veneer top stained in Armoire Hickory. Keeping with the hardware that my client had changed out a few years back, polished and cleaned.

Dining Table and Chairs
A few weeks ago I posted about a chair that I refinished for a client, click Dining Chair to read about it! My client was unsure with imagining how her dining set was going to look refinished so I offered to start with one chair to show her. Well, her dining table and chairs are complete! After dropping off the dining set on Friday she also gave me the matching hutch to officially complete this set! Stay tuned in to that lovely transformation!
Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Greek Villa and lightly stained in brown. The top of the table is stained in Wood Classics Armoire Hickory. The two drawer handles revamped in black. Chairs reupholstered in Joann’s Fabric a grey vinyl.

Antique Barrel Top Decorative Trunk
“Look at this stuff
Isn’t it neat?
Wouldn’t you think my collection’s complete?
Wouldn’t you think I’m the girl
The girl who has ev’rything?
Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Lookin’ around here you’d think
(Sure) she’s got everything…”
Why am I singing Ariel’s song ‘Part of your world’ from my favorite childhood Disney movie Little Mermaid you ask?
Well, If you like color, mermaids, the ocean or even treasure, you will definitely like this trunk!! I tried a blending technique on a Serpentine Dresser not to long ago and absolutely loved the freedom and chaos it provided. (Click Serpentine Dresser to view) So when my client handed me an antique barrel top decorative trunk that she needed to use to store her blankets, but had no idea how she wanted her trunk refinished, I was full of ideas. I sent her a few inspirational photos of both black and colorful pieces and she dove in with “I love color, I’m excited, just surprise me”. Total freedom… Glad she is as happy as I am!!
I’m absolutely excited not only about this piece, but the technique. It was fun and completely different then my usual!
Refinished in four different colors using Sherwin-Williams Freshwater, Haven, Butternut and Rockwood Terra Cotta. All hardware and metal pieces revamped in gold. Glazed in a brown to antique this trunk up a bit more to create a timeless look.

Dining Table
Occasionally, I will receive pieces that my clients gave their all into refinishing, to only stop because the realization of the amount of work that is involved sets in, well, that and life. Don’t stress!! I am here for you!! Let me take on your project- this is what I do!!
About ninety percent of my work is custom base. I am so blessed to have your support and word of mouth.
My client brought me a dining table that has significant meaning to her. A special friend in her life gave her this table knowing she would get more use out of it. She started to strip her table but then “life” happens. Usually projects take longer then the good old 5 min YouTube tutorial. We can get discouraged real quick. After sitting in her garage for months, she reached out to me.
Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Ivory Lace and lightly glazed in a dark grey. The top is stained in Wood Classics, Weathered Teak.
