This Scandinavian style Mid Century Modern Dresser came out beautifully. Brian built me an oak base to match the original oak handles. The natural tone of the wood goes so well with the Natural Linen paint. This gorgeous piece is available for purchase.

These chairs belonged to the sweetest client. They had been in her garage for years and she was ready to have them repaired and refinished. One of the chairs seats was broken in half and required 3 dowels to be drilled into it to make it stable. You'd never know which one it was. Finished chairs, stain only, sanded, and original condition.

This lingerie chest belongs to a client who i have done several other pieces for over the years. While sorting through a family storage unit, she found this gorgeous mahogany lingerie chest. She wanted it refinished to match a pie chest that I had refinished for her so that it can be used for storage in her dining/entry area. I painted it in Fusion Mineral Paint's Limestone, polished the brass hardware, and rejuvenated the drawers with Citrus wax.

This Federal Style mahogany bow front chest of drawers was showing it's age and covered in ni****ne. Lots of cleaning inside and out, sanding everything including the interior drawer space, sealing every inch of the inside and outside with lacquer to trap any odor, and finally finished in Fusion Mineral Paint's Coal Black. This beauty sold in less than 12 hours.

These antique doors left me with a little trauma. A client reached out wanting me to finish restoring these after she tried to start the process and realized she was in over her head. Removing the old paint and finish was the easy part. The wood was so old and dry, it splinered as I hand sanded the details. I received several large splinters right under my fingernails, much like bamboo shoot torture. They were worth it though! Just look how beautiful they came out! The large repair areas are invisible.
