Metallic Blue & Blackened Silver French Dresser

This was a custom order for a new buyer, he wanted it in metallic colors.  He found a dresser he liked online and asked me to paint it similar... so he picked this dresser I had gotten in and these two colors:  metallic baby blue and blackened silver.   Then asked where he wanted the colors....so here is the before.... 





we stripped of course and primed...
then painted most of the body and all drawers metallic baby blue...


painted the top, middle dividers between the drawers, and hardware the metallic blackened silver...


also painted the middle curved part metallic blackened silver...


Here is the finished piece!



It is so beautiful!  He was very pleased with it and it matched his room perfectly :)

Black and Gold Media Stand

Kristina is one of our repeat buyers, we have furnished and custom painted a total of 5 pieces for her.  This was her 5th!  Thank you so much Kristina :)  She wanted this black with brushed gold over the popped out parts.   We sanded it down, primed it, and added multiple coats of black paint...



We had to replace the inside bottom shelf it was cardboard, we replaced it with wood and stained it...


Brushed the gold....




remember those scratches on the top, we filled those in .... 


And here it is all done!!!!


Just gorgous :)


I love my pieces once they are done!
 Many people cannot see how beautiful they look
 when they see it unfinished, but once we refinish it (with the right technique of course ) 
they look awesome!  Just look at my before & after album :)
