Black Desk Vanity

Started out as this the middle drawer was broken husband fixed it and it was dovetail!  He did a amazing job!  He fixed the veneer that was torn off.  We found some handles that matched the decor on it.  Sanded it down completely....

Painted it Black and slightly distressed it.....

distressed at edges and corners.....

Painted the handles, knobs, and the decor a copper.

Teal and Purple Dresser

This was before.......I had numerous ideas for this one!  We actually got this with no legs, my husband had some and attached them and it looks real nice.  So we sanded, took off the back wood panels behind the spindles.  Then primed it and....

I painted it a mixed teal color,  

Painted the handles purple....

then painted the inside top drawers purple also to bring out the handles.

Now, this looks real cute!

Royal Blue Dresser

This was the before...

I list alot of my unfinished pieces for sale until I can get to them.  This was one of those.  It was damaged on the top front part of the drawer and the drawer itself.  So my husband repaired that and sealed up the two holes to replace it with a single knob to fit the other two single knobs on the top drawer.  Sanded it down......

Then here is the after....

Royal Blue .....

Can't tell it was damaged....

painted the handles silver....

Looks real nice, I love those two colors together....

French Provincial Dixie Dresser

This one was pretty as is but I need my pieces with some color, I mean real color!  I was really flip floppy with this one.  I didn't know what colors to choose as I was looking for a two tone cause that's what I mainly like.  So my sweet husband (love him so much) sanded it down and I came up with this.....

Emerald Green top and part of the drawers....

Grey shell and part of the drawers.....

with silver handles!

I JUST L-O-V-E IT!!!!!!   

Two Solid Wood 1960's Pantry Cabinet Shelves

These where just all wood colored when I found them.  I always see painted ones that are all painted.  I couldn't do that to these.  I wanted to show some of the wood as it was just to pretty to cover up.

So I painted this one teal green in some areas.  Then painted the grooved areas and handles grey. Added some small fencing wire to the back top cabinets and painted those grey also.

This one has 3 drawers as shown....

 This one I painted white in some areas.  Then painted the grooved areas and handles black. 

                    Added some small fencing wire to the back top cabinets and painted those black also.

Now, they look fabulous!  Just alittle touch of color was all they needed....

Shabby Chic with alittle Steampunk Vanity or Entry Table

I found this vanity, the mirror was a total loss, cracked and broken, so I replaced it with another mirror I had.  Rebuilt the back with some extra wood pieces I had and one even had that pretty design on it already.

It even had the original handles still!

Distressed everything,....heavy waxed the white parts.....

 Painted the doors and back pieces dark grey, painted the handles copper, even the mirror painted it copper to bring out the handles, then added some copper color to the wood decor.

Look at the hideaway in the right drawer.  We added a cover for it, it is a piece of a fan blade, so cool!

I just love this piece, it was supposed to be a quick one for us, but goodness it ended up being ALOT of work.  I guess that is why it looks so beautiful to me:)  I see a mixture of age along with some updated beauty.....

Bassett Cabinet Dresser

This was before I tried to sell it but nobody wanted it looking like this.......

And After.....

Painted it a majestic blue color I thought it needed a color that would bring out the beauty in it.   

Also painted the shelf inside...

Stained the outer trim and black waxed it....

Found some handles and polished them up. put some gold trim around the doors ad left the oriental decor it was just so pretty to paint over.....I think it came out just fantastic!
