White MCM Dresser.......


Found this beautiful mid century dresser.  It had cabinet 
knobs on it when we found it.  I took them off and
sanded it down.


Primed it and painted it all white with Benjamin Moore
paint.  I went with a smooth
flat clean look in all crisp white.


Added these beautiful handles with a rope pull.


Very deep drawers.



I also added these knobs to go with the square straightness
of the dresser,



Our smooth sprayed finish.


Look at all those deep spacious drawers!






I love how this came out.

White Curio Stand and Farmhouse Chest....


One of our regular repeat clients wanted us to paint 
this curio cabinet and farmhouse chest all white with
no distress. She wanted all the texture to stay the 
same if possible.  It was painted in provence chalk paint at one time.
Then with a crackle look.


We sanded it down and teal was everywhere...
the texture came off in most areas.




I primed them all white.  Then painted them all white.


We added some rustic hinges to the chest, it made the door
more sturdy.



Took all hardware off and stripped that and painted them all.


Took the glass and rubber out also to paint in every crack, 
She wanted to see no more blue.




Couldn't get the blue off of some of the rubber though, we tried.








Looks beautiful and she loved them.






White/Gray French Provincial Dresser....


A new client found us online by seeing a dresser I had painted
in my own design up for sale.  She lived in Taylor, Tx and was 
fixing up a old house in the country.  She wanted the painted dresser
I had done, plus this one above.  She is using both
dressers we painted in her restrooms as vanities.
Here is the french dresser before.  Cosmetic damage here and there.


We stripped it down and sanded it smooth, put it up for sale like 
shown.  Needless to say it was ready for me to paint.  I primed it all.


She wanted a gray top and white body, she also wanted 
my opinions on colors and hardware colors.
Basically, she was trying to coordinate it with her
tile she bought for the restroom.  It had gray, light gray and white.


I suggested nightengale or kendall gray from Benjamin Moore 
and out of the can white or simply white from Benjamin Moore. 
Then, on the hardware I suggested iron steel color.   


She chose kendall gray for top and simply white for bottom.
Then the iron steel hardware color.  She also wanted
 slight distress on edges.  


















She absolutely loved it!  I did too, very beautiful.
Here's the other dresser she purchased from us.
This one below was painted in my own design.
