French Cream Distressed Aged Dresser...


John went to work on this french dresser before I could get 
a before photo.  He has his own workshop away from me.
While he was repairing a custom order piece he started on 
this one without letting me know.
It was damaged on the top missing veneer,
chips and scratches everywhere.  Pulled off back and put a 
new one on it because it was damaged.  Drawers where rough
going in and out so he repaired that, they open and close
perfect now.  Plus missing hardware.
I had some in my inventory though.

Painted hardware in dark bronze and added 
these pulls I had in my inventory below.



Painted the dresser in cream with distressed edges.


This is a hard to find antique french dresser.
Once you get this particular style/look you don't let them go.


Added a new wood backboard.


Smooth chalk painted finish.





Came out absolutely gorgeous!
Matches the french nightstands I have up for sale too!


Paid attention to detail as you can see in photos.



Stained the top in a custom mix.


Sealed the top in a flat sealer.

French Antiqued Dresser...


This was a customer order.  One of my good friends from 
high school wanted a french dresser.  
Before below.


She wanted it in this finish below I did a few years ago.


Stained top in expresso.  Ran into some trouble
on the trim as it was pressed wood.
But I made it work best I could.
Looks good too!


Sealed top in a gloss finish.


Painted the body in Annie Sloan Natural.
Which is the old white but now old white is more 
gray.


Antiqued and distressed it.



Kept hardware original.





Looks gorgeous!  
Sidenote..arms and shoulders where killing
me last night from the antiquing..
WORTH IT!

Antique 1920s Buffet Refinished....


This antique buffet was made in the 20s 
and is very solid extremely well made.
We repaired the top drawer also had to 
make a slide for the right side as it was missing.
That took some time.  
Sanded down the top because it had several scratches.
Also the sanded the top drawer then I stained everything so 
it all could match. 
Before below.





Sealed in a semi gloss sealer.










Top came out really beautiful!





Mirror is gorgeous, does have a missing trim chip
on the left top of the mirror
as you can see. 
 But that doesn't affect the mirror at all.


Lots of storage area.
