Farmhouse French White China Cabinet Hutch....


I snagged this french china hutch online
and had time to chalk paint it.  John has been 
extremely busy all week stripping pieces 
for client orders.  Next week I'll be busy 
painting those pieces.  The weather here in Houston, TX
has been horrible for painting.  Dry time takes forever.
Although, chalk paint drys a lot quicker than latex.
Which is why I chose to paint this one in chalk paint.
Here's the before below. 


Added a new back board.


Added chicken wire because the middle 
glass was missing.  Plus, I wanted a more farmhouse look.





Painted it all white and distressed edges.



Smooth no brush stroke chalk painted finish.



I painted hardware in dark bronze.





Excellent size, it's not too big but not
to small either.


Kept bottom inside natural.


Has so much storage for it not being
so big.






I'm so in love with this piece!  I would love to 
keep it but I already have my buffet I refinished 😐
This is currently available for purchase. 
Message if interested.

Mid Century Chest/Nightstands In Matte Black....


One of our previous clients was flooded in Harvey
and wanted a mid century modern chest of drawers.
Not the ones on legs the flat straight bottom ones.
I didn't have any in my inventory, so I searched for her.
I found this one and she loved it.  I also showed her a mcm 
nightstand I had in my inventory that would go perfect 
with the chest.  It had the same design on the bottom.
She said yes on the nightstand also.
Before below.


Both of them needed repairs. Which we did.


We repaired and stripped.








She wanted a matte black finish with silver hardware.




Painted black and sealed in a matte
sealer.






Hardware painted in nickel.








Looks amazing!

Updated Stanley Dresser Set....


New client contacted us a while back from my blog and
said she was referred to us by one of
our previous clients. She said she loved the table
we did for her friend.  
She wanted a dresser/nightstand set custom painted to her liking.
I didn't have anything she liked in my unpainted
available inventory.  So, she waited patiently till I got something in 
she liked.
I got this one in and she loved it.
Before below.


It was originally the factory creamy color and 
the previous owners had put a poly stain over it all.
A reddish stain at that.
We had to strip it, took forever.





She wanted the stained top with white distressed 
body, then painted dark bronze hardware.
Paint was done in Benjamin Moore white.













She loves it, I love this look to 😊💖
