Black Cabinet....

I found this claw foot antique cabinet 

years ago.  Never had time to get to it.

But, now that I’ve took this year off

of customer orders.. I’m finally 

getting to my pieces that I have been 

wanting to get too.

It was missing one board on the side.

Both shelves where gone inside also.

I added new knobs to the top small drawer.

I made some slat shelves and I wanted them

to be very knotty.  So I tried to pick the worst

ones at the hardware store.

Stained the slats in a dark stain.  The sealed those in

general finishes flat high performance.

Painted the outside of the cabinets in 

a black with distressed edges.

Added some antiquing to it with dark wax.

Also added new handles to the cabinet doors.

Then  added chicken wire and painted that black too.

Oh and added some magnetic closures.

This would be perfect for a coffee bar.

Or just for books in the living room.

Light Gray Buffet....

This buffet had some side damage.

We repaired the damaged side.

Sanded the top down.

Filled in the old hardware damage.

I painted it a light gray in a custom mix

I created.  

Sealed everything in a wax finish.

Added new ceramic white pulls.

Distressed edges.

Came out so beautiful.

Would look amazing in a  kitchen 

or dining room!

Even a changing table!

Large Cream Distressed French Buffet....

I found this beautiful very wide and old french

provincial buffet last year.  It's 94.5" wide.  I had it up as custom

painted only.  New customer put an order in for it

last October or November.  We are booked for months.

She waited patiently.  Here it is before below.

She wanted my chalk painted cream distressed 

finish with a stained dark top.

It was painted in a dark reddish brown color.

So we stripped everything down.  I wanted that natural

wood to show up not the painted look it had.

Stained the top in general finishes espresso.

Sealed in a semi gloss.

Body painted in cream.

Distressed the edges.

I had this beautiful hardware and added that to the 

middle drawers.

Painted the inside also.

Had red felt in the first drawer so we removed that.

Boy was that fun!

Here it is all completed looking gorgeous!

She is very happy with the outcome!
