creamy off white color looks real good with this style....
replaced the knobs with bigger ones and painted them copper....


left the original steel bar handle the color it was,
painted the ends copper...


still has the utensil tray very good condition....


I wanted a color to go with the style....


wanted the top to be stained to bring out the piece....

French Provincial Highboy & French Triple Dresser Painted Revere Pewter........


This was a custom order for another of our new buyers.  We furnished and custom painted these for her.  She wanted them to match but have different color handles and have the tops a wood finish.  The highboy was for her son and the triple was for her daughter.

Here is the french highboy.  It has a glass top which was never removed so we didn't have to touch that part.
The bottom right foot was clipped off so John repaired that part.  
He did a fantastic job on that!



Here is the triple dresser with a high gloss on it and missing handles so we 
sealed the left and right side drawers up
and added some new holes to fit the
french handles we had.

She wanted high gloss black for the highboy handles...


The top was just shined up to cover any knicks....


We sanded and primed it...



Painted it with numerous coats of revere pewter....


We refinished the top of the triple one......
stained it and added some poly to it......


Stripped this one down, primed it....


She wanted these handles and knobs silver....



Then we painted this one with numerous coats
of revere pewter also...



Here they are both finished!
BEAUTIFUL!

Well one of my repeat awesome buyers Jill wanted me to find her some round curvy end table and paint them to match her pillow and lamps in her room......
So we found her some and did just that!

Here they are before...

dressers I did for her also....



Looks way better than the blah wood color :)

Custom order painted grey dresser.......

This was a custom order for Joann.  She had this dresser and stripped it but couldn't finish it....so she told us if we could and then paint it a lighter grey.  She said she didn't know if she wanted handles so seal all holes up....

This how she gave it to us...she sealed in some holes, we resealed them and the sealed in the other holes she made...


after we fully stripped it....


sealed in all holes...



here is is finished....



can't even see where the holes where....




Looks awesome!!!
