Little Side Table

Published on by Second Chance CharmsLeave a comment

This quaint side table has had many layers of love in her life in the form of paint layers, each telling a story of transformation and cherished memories. My client wanted to match it to a beautiful dresser she has in her Guest Room, creating a cohesive look in her home that reflects her personal style, which leans toward vintage charm.

Back in November of 2015, my client purchased an exquisite antique dresser from my Shop Selections that I had for sale, a piece that captured her heart at first sight with its intricate carvings and timeless design. Still captivated by the dresser’s elegance, she received a sentimental side table from her mother-in-law, who believed that every piece of furniture should carry a tale worth sharing.

Although there isn’t a dedicated post for the Antique Dresser, I do have a staged picture from 2015- a beautiful reminder of how far I’ve come in my journey of growth, creativity, and passion.

Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Haven and glazed in a rich brown, this beautiful piece has been carefully restored to highlight its natural beauty and unique style. It adds a bright touch to my client’s guest bedroom. Every detail, from its smooth texture to its subtle sheen, creates a cozy and elegant atmosphere. By choosing colors that match the overall decor, this piece serves both as a functional item and an eye-catching focal point that guests will appreciate.

I got my hands on this stunning 1900’s antique dresser, sadly the original tiger wood faced drawers had seen better days. I ended up having to remove the old partly missing and very much chipped veneer and decided to give this beauty a true Second Chance! Changing directions from giving him a restoration I ended up wanting to see him in a green.

Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Oakmoss and heavily glazed in a dark brown slightly distressed in areas I saw fit for an aged look. Removing the original knobs and adding different pulls that I revamped in a Chestnut classed up this handsome fellow. I left his casters on, cleaned them up and refinished them in Chestnut as well for an overall makeover.

Oh my heart!! The colors! All of this I just love!! When I visited my client for her color consultation she had a vision of how she wanted her family room pieces to look. Grey with a dark top to tie in her dark and dreamy kitchen. When verifying with her husband he mentioned a piece that he absolutely loved from my webpage: Bohemian Buffet by Link-Taylor

Another piece close to my heart that I really enjoyed doing. I looked over my shoulder and saw a painting hanging on the wall above their couch. I quickly pointed and said “we can use these colors!”

The excitement gained way and my mind was swirling! She ending up changing her original idea to a better one! The End Tables, I posted yesterday were grey and black glaze to tie in with this statement piece, making them still a matching set but with a lot more BOOM! This TV stand came out exactly how I envisioned!

Using Sherwin-Williams Tin Lizzie as our grey base I blended Jade Dragon, Interesting Aqua and Peppercorn. Glazing the unit in Tricorn Black to match the end tables which blended these three pieces together nicely. The top is Tin Lizzie just like the end tables. I added a pop of Sunny Veranda for an added artistic vibe. Changed out the hardware with white distressed grey knobs from Hobby Lobby.

I needed color in my life, and I needed it fast! With summer at an end and school has begun I still think about our vacation to California and the gorgeous beaches. Using the ocean as an inspiration I wanted to do something special with one of my inventory pieces.

Refinished in Sherwin-Williams Honeycomb, Freshwater and Rainstorm using a blending technique. Glazed in black for a deep vintage look. Original hardware revamped in gold and glazed in black.

This piece is available for purchase! Click over to Shop Selections to view details.
