Secretary Writing Desk - custom

Here is a fun before and after post for you!

A new referral client of mine brought me this
beautiful secretary writing desk.

She requested we paint it Duck Egg blue
and spray the hardware a Rubbed Oil Bronze.
Distress as needed.

Here is how it turned out!






Such a fun piece!

Provincial Black Buffet

How cool is this buffet entertainment center?!

I'd love to stare at this piece of furniture as I watch TV . . .
and that's exactly what my client will be doing, starting tonight.
Oh, and here was the before:

Quite the transformation!
(and yes, the mismatched knob will be changed out to match the rest!)

Before & After

A new client of mine came to me requesting a
bedroom set makeover.
It wasn't any bedroom set, it used to be her moms.
So, naturally, it has some special meaning and,
like many pieces, it was dated.

Here is what she dropped off:

And here is what she's picking up:


I love this transformation!

Buffet Beauty

I love this one!
A repeat client of mine has been searching for
that.perfect.piece. for her dining room.
And, she finally found it.
This bar cabinet has been sitting on the
Coming Soon page of my website for awhile.
It's the best little cabinet! 
The wood top actually pulls apart,
slides open and nearly doubles the serving space!
And, there's a ton of storage space inside it.


Here is the before:

She requested an Old White body with a wood top.
I decided to make the top look a little more worn and aged
by doing a whitewash, rubbing it off and then sealing
it with both a dark and clear wax coat.
It's beautiful!







I hope you love it, Gina!
If not, we'll gladly keep it!  :)
