Lovely White Console Table

Who would have thought this little table

would have so much potential . . . ?

My lucky client!

She found this table on Craig's List and snatched it up.
With a little work, we turned it into a beautiful console table.

Here it is freshly painted pure white and distressed:
 

I paired it with some fun hardware I had on hand.

It really is a little beauty!

Graphite Buffet

Here's a quick before and after post!

We turned this dresser:

Into this buffet:

CoCo Vanity

This sweet little vanity just got a beautiful makeover.

A client of mine reserved it and requested

I paint it in Annie Sloan's CoCo.
It was my first time working with this color -

I'm now a big fan!

It's such a darling piece!

Dining Room Hutch, part 2

Part two. Thank goodness. The china hutch is complete.

It was picked up this weekend.  Honestly, it was a pretty amazing transformation.

Here is how the top portion turned out . . .

And here is a picture of it fully 'assembled'. 

I'm a sucker for white furniture!

Dining Room Hutch, part 1

Here is part one of a two part project post.

Why two posts?

Because this piece of furniture is massive (and heavy).

It doesn't appear that large in photos, but trust me, it is.

A few weeks ago I posted about a client who recently

purchased a new lake home.  She came to me requesting

we brighten up some of her existing furniture.

Here is another piece that she dropped off:

She requested it be painted in Annie Sloan's Old White with

light distressing.

Here is how the bottom portion turned out.

I love the original hardware. 

The entire piece looks fantastic. It's a completely different look.

We're nearly finished with the hutch portion of this project. 

I'll post photos in a day or so.

If you know me, you know I'll do whatever it takes to get a

great furniture shot.  Lifting, moving - bring it on.

So . . .  I'm really bummed that

the hutch is too heavy for us to lift onto this cabinet.

On the bright side, two part furniture posts can be fun.

Plus - I'm pregnant - so the lifting ends here.  Until, October.

To be continued! 

Napoleonic Blue Dresser

A very sweet client of mine reserved this dresser.

Here was her request:

Annie Sloan's Napoleonic Blue.

Glass Knobs.

Wood Top.

I actually had the opportunity to see the room this dresser would end up in.

It's a beautiful, main level, reading room.

Think lots of natural sunlight paired with fun white and blue distressed furniture.

It's gorgeous!  If invited, I'd move in.  :)

I actually decided to first paint the dresser Old White.

As a result, the white pulled through when I distressed, creating a beautiful layered look.

I also sanded the wood top and stained it a bit darker.

I love how it turned out!



Love.Love.Love.

Custom Bench : Primer Red

{Two benches in one week, wow.}

Here is another custom project.

I forgot to take a before picture of this one, bummer.

We painted this bench in Annie Sloan's Primer Red.

It was my first time painting with this color . . .

but I'm hooked! 



It's such a great accent color. 

Everyone needs a little red in their house!
