My parents were spending a weekend up in Park City and walked into a consignment shop and spotted this little wash stand. My mom has started gathering pieces in hopes that next summer they will be able to put in a bunk house next to the ranch house. The family has grown so much we just need more room. She opted for this green color that compliments her taste of colors that tend to be more on the rich side. Perhaps this will sit between a couple of twin beds or maybe as a nightstand in another bedroom. I think that the original hardware keeps the vintage look and feel and I always adore pieces sitting up on little legs.

Happy Wednesday!

Do you see a red trend here? Seems that we have been doing quite of bit of it recently! This particular piece is for my parent's ranch house and my mom loves red furniture. It took a few different reds to match it perfectly. Red can be a hard match. Some of my favorites on this piece is the little oval mirror on the sweet back splash and the twisty front legs that are hand carved. How do we know this is how they were made? If you look closely you will see the right one is just a bit bigger than the left. I adore the sweet original flower embellishments on each door. I think they tie in perfectly with the original floral hardware. I cannot wait to see this in its home next summer when my parents complete their bunk house next to the ranch house. We are heading up that way for the Thanksgiving holiday and the barn has been completed and I cannot wait to see it.

Happy weekend friends!

I am not sure about you but I am really liking the dark table top with the ever slight variation in the paint. The body of the dresser is a light grey and the drawers are white. It is a subtle difference but gives such depth! This one is available if anyone is interested.

Happy Friday!

The Annalee Dresser - Custom Refinish Before & After

So there are a few of these little french provencial dressers with the gold trim and the slightly yellowed finish. Well these little ladies sure clean up nicely when they are dusted with a coat of white paint for a fresh clean feminine look.

The Sylvia Dresser - Custom Refinish Before & After

From totally rough and shabby to a new life shiny as a red apple. Ha!

We are awaiting the black handles to arrive but we could not wait to take pictures because this has already been picked up and ready for its new home!

I think this picture emphasizes the curves in the drawers so nicely!

Nothing like cleaning up an old dresser with curves and legs and keyholes. Thank you to Sylvia for letting us be a part of it all.

Mike informed me that our fireplace mantel has been completed and now to just haul it here and decide which wall it belongs on and get it mounted and ready to go. I am so excited to share the reveal!

The Anderson Bed Set - Custom Refinish Before & After

This is the before picture for a waterfall bedroom set we refinished for a client. Although it was not in too bad of shape it had some surface scratches and dings and the bed was broken.

Now it is sparkling and almost brand new!

The original handles were polished up and carefully placed right back on to maintain its original appearance.

I like the boxy little feet on both the vanity, dresser, and bed. I always say I much prefer feet than a big old dresser sitting directly on the floor. Just the little height above the floor gives a much more polished look.

We hope that our client is happy with the results as this piece is sentimental and they had a desire to restore it back to its original state when their parents purchased it so many years ago. Perhaps it can continue to be used like it was some years back.

Did you catch the blue sky in one of the pictures above? Our weather here has been beautiful! And this little dresser has seen an amazing make over with a fresh coat of paint and some new hardware. It has cute square feet and a long single door that behind it houses an old bar to hang clothes. These little custom pieces are such fun.
