Cute Rejuvenation!

Little Table but adorable!
Very old condition and not care, but when I start sand it I found the best wood grain ever.
I just left the grain How I discovered "original", because It was just great.
Painted the legs and a small little fix in this old legs here and there and that was all.
The top I use light wood stain and some very good wood protection,
Awesome table!
Hope you like it!

One More Miracle!

Another Dresser, Oh My!!!
This week only dresser make over.
This one I found, took me forever...
Three covers of thick, decades old paint, plus wall paper everywhere. I felt like an archeologist painstakingly peeling back the layers of time as to not harm the artifact buried underneath (I know, a little overdramatic).
Finally, with the stripper, I took everything off and left this sweet baby buck naked, I found the beauty of this lovely piece included the glass vintage knobs and the great old vintage wheels. Great and Awesome found!
Well this time I only paint the drawers but I left the top with just a dark wood stain. I choose a light cream color from B.Moore ( great paint), I did a little distress how you will see it in the picture.
Inside burlap covers for each drawer and I choose some dark  hardware for the perfect combination  with the top of the desk.

This piece I really love it!
Hope you like it


Until next time

Spring Time!!

Hello Friends,
Are we ready for my favorite time of the year?
I found two old homemade wood plant stands, impossible for me to leave alone without just a little makeover.

First one I painted to a New England Cottage style. The other one I partially stripped the old stain leaving some deep inside the joints and  added a red stain on top to give it a strong natural rustic feel.

They really come up very nice! Let see what you think...
