Black Side Buffet....

Previous client came back to us again and wanted us

to paint her side buffet.  Her husband wanted it all 

black and we added a water cased semi gloss sealer.

Before below.

Stripped.

She be adding knobs later.

Done!  Looks beautiful!!

White Updated Rustic Dresser......

I was working on this piece last month that I 

got for free from a client.  I didn't like the previous hardware, so

I replaced it with new handles.

While I was working on it along with a custom client order

that was being painted the same color (multitasking!)

I received a message from a new follower.

She wanted a previous dresser I had just sold a few hours

before.  She asked if I would be painting anything

in that same style & color...I said yes and showed 

her this one I was working on.

Here is the before below.

Sanded it down.  Then primed it.

I showed her this picture of the handles I was putting on them.

I also showed her the before with the original handles.

She loved the look I was going for all she wanted was the hardware 

painted silver.  

Here it is painted in white using Benjamin Moore paint.

No distress I thought it looked better without it.

I liked the clean look on this particular dresser.

Here it is in her home, she loved it!

Beautiful Ornate Buffet In Gray...

The last piece of furniture for the huge order we've 

been working on the last few weeks.  We had to wait a week till Harvey 

left houston to do this.  That was scary.  The rain just didn't stop.

Constant, more hard downpours than anything.

We didn't get any flooding in our home or storage units.

Although, a lot of my clients did.  Some lost only the first floor.

Other's lost everything.  Pieces we had custom painted for them

where ruined and had to be thrown out.  As long as they are

all ok because items can be repaired and replaced.

Still it's heartbreaking and a stressful tiring time for them.

We have seen the destruction going thru the neighbor

hoods.  There are no words.  All the furniture, appliances, mattresses,

lamps, sofas, bedding, clothes, sheetrock, everything on the front

lawns.  Mother nature is very unpredictable, life is very

unpredictable.  But seeing all the amazing people in our city

of Houston, Tx is beautiful.  Helping each other, making it somewhat 

easier for people who lost so much.  Lifting that burden some

to relieve that anxiety of what was lost.  God bless them all.  

Here is the before on this beautiful buffet my client 

purchased from her neighbor that was moving and couldn't 

take it with her.

You need a key to open all doors.

We sanded it all down and then I primed it all.

Then I painted it in Benjamin Moore Chelsea Gray.

She initially wanted metallic silver from Ralph Lauren,

but they no longer make paint.

It came out so clean and beautiful.  So glad she went with one

of the colors I recomended!
