Low Black Buffet...

A wonderful lady from my town called and asked if I would like to purchase her buffet. The legs had been cut off and replaced with huge casters...

Well, it was love at first sight. I knew I had a client looking for this very thing for her TV.

We stripped the top and stained it with an oak finish. Painted her black with medium distressing.

The hardware got a new coat of silver and then an antiquing glaze over that.
This piece has the coolest caddy, that slide both ways and lifts out!
Needless to say my client loved it!

Around Grandma's table...

I have a client that asked me to update

her Grandmother's French Provincial dining set.We started with a creamy white paint...
then I mixed a custom metallic taupe glaze

and finished with some gold paint in

just a few places.
We finished the top in a medium oak to match their trim and flooring. The chairs were covered with new padding and finished in a taupe satin fabric of my client's choosing.

I think her Grandmother's set turned out beautiful.

I pray the family enjoys many meals around their

set as they remember their Grandma fondly.

Now that is a true heirloom!

Blessings~
