This was one of those projects where we took a chance on a piece, not knowing what we would find underneath the painted surface. We believe this piece dates back to the late 1800s or early 1900s. It features unique pin and cove drawer dovetails and beautiful tiger oak. (Note: More finished pictures are at the bottom of the blog).

This is a China cabinet that a friend of ours from Lynchburg, VA found for us. It was in need of some major love, but we saw a lot of potential with its French provincial style. It took a ton of work, but we love the way this came out. Plus, we were able to incorporate designer wallpaper into the project, which really brought the piece to another level! We apologize, the phone that we took the before pictures with stopped working on us, so we lost those pictures. (Note: more finished pictures are at the end of the blog).
A really cool couple gave us an opportunity to work on this amazing dresser! Mixing stains gives you the opportunity to create the perfect color and design for your space. Even though we have tried this particular stain mixture on a couple different projects, we feel like the result has been a little bit different every time. Making each piece truly unique.

This foyer table was a Craigslist find. We decided to make this piece a classy signature piece by painting it black and finished it with a semi-gloss finish.
This was an incredible dresser manufactured by Drexel. Josh's sister and brother-in-law gave this dresser to us to work on, and are extremely grateful for the opportunity. This was our first stain-over-paint piece and we loved it!
This dresser was donated to us by Josh's sister and brother-in-law, and it was a great foundation for this design. Mixing stains gives you the opportunity to create the perfect color and design for your space. We love the way this turned out! Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of pictures for this piece, so you may have to use your imagination to picture some of the steps we'll describe below.
This is a dresser that was refinished for our niece, Kinsley. It was an ugly green color when it arrived at our shop, so we knew that we had our work cut out for us. However, this was an opportunity for a major transformation, and we couldn't pass up the chance to work on this piece.
This was a Craigslist find in Lynchburg, VA. We were immediately attracted to this piece because of its attractive veneer and intricate lattice. This was a one of a kind piece of furniture and one that we could not pass up the chance to work on.
This dresser was found in Greensboro, NC. It needed a little bit of work, but the body was in pretty good shape and all of the original hardware was in great condition. We have certain designs that we have come to appreciate over time, and the blend of white paint and stain is a classy look that can help improve just about any room that it is put in.
