Antique Cream Dressers Nightstands....


Got these old antique side dressers online.
Sanded down the tops and repaired the drawers.
Before below.


The drawers kept going in.


The hardware didn't want to come 
off so I left them on.  
They had old screws in them 
and bolts on the back of the 
hardware.
His and hers dressers as one is half in 
taller and the other is a half inch deeper.


Painted them in a very beautiful cream.



Distressed edges.  Then wax sealed.



Hardware left original.
That hardware though...
so beautiful and unique.








On original wheel casters.  Which are removable.




Priced at $445
His 18.5"d/36"w/31"h 
Hers 18"d/36"w/31.5"h

Cream Aged Buffet Sideboard....


We've had this beautiful buffet made by Vaughn furniture
in our inventory for almost 2 years.  I decided to paint
it in a vintage finished look.


It needed tons of cosmetic repair.
As you can see below, veneer damage was the worst on drawers.


Side warping on one side of the piece also.






We repaired all the damaged areas.
Sanded it all down.
 Primed it all white.


The color I chose was by Benjamin Moore
called Mannequin Cream. 


Then I went to work on the vintage finish.
Also changed the hardware.




I added a scrap piece we had to the back 
to bring out the piece more and I love it!






Side warping was repaired.



I sanded it all down before I primed it but I 
left some imperfections there to go with the vintage finish 
I wanted.






The outcome is absolutely amazing isn't it?
Currently available, message if interested.
Priced at $400.
Measures at 60"w/37.5"h/20"d
Delivery available for an additional fee of $20.

Antiqued Old White Dining Set, Buffet, Hutch...


Client who we did the previous post for which 
was the navy french dresser/nightstand set, 
wanted us to do her antique 
dining set also.
Before photos below.

Glass hutch.


Small side buffet.


Top of buffet was damaged.


All 6 chairs.



Stripped the top side buffet.


Stripped the 3 leaves for the table.



Stripped table top.
She wanted the leaves and table refinished because it
had water rings/stains.


She wanted my opinions on some designs for the look.
She knew she wanted the annie sloan 
old white antiqued look I've done before.
She fell in love with the antique set we
had previously done for her friend (our previous client).
Which was the old white antiqued look.
But, she was on a budget from Harvey.
She intentionally wanted everything refinished
and stained.  Although, we don't do that anymore
and it would be very expensive.
I suggested painting only the outside of the glass hutch
and cleaning up/sealing the inside.   






Then, I suggested we paint the whole 
side buffet to bring in more 
of the old white look.















We refinished the table top/leaves though as they where 
rough looking.
Sealed them all with 5 coats of sealer.









All three leaves refinished and looking beautiful.




Chairs we cleaned up and sealed them all.
Keeping more of the wood
in the mix instead of painting the chairs
would really bring everything together.
Especially for the design of the pieces.  








She provided her new fabric and we upholstered
them all.







She was very pleased with the outcome!
I was too.
