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...

Cranberry Spring!

Welcome Back!
I love Red Cranberry, so today I make the decision to paint this Desk that I've had for long time with one of my favorites color.
Too much work on this desk, to much repair and wood glue, but underneath really, great oak wood to work on!
Inside I chose burlap to line the drawers and a little cute flower stencil.
Well,it came up very nice, I left some picture of Before and After for you to enjoy, hope you like it!

Mail Box and Key Holder

Dear Friends, Today I tried a new color "Grey", I was inspired to use this color by the weather outside of my window, at the market. It has been so very cloudy and cold this pass week in Massachusetts. Instead of letting it depress me, I used it to inspire me!

I did some distress on the borders and I used an old metal Butterfly (that I rescued from a broken wind chime) and some dark varnish, to give the wood and the color some antique look. 

Hope you enjoy the Transformation from a coffee mug to a cute Butterfly!!!

One More time 

Thank you for visiting.

Until Next Time!!

Candle Holder with Box

Hello Friends!

Today I finally finished a project, that I found with my sister some time ago.

I liked how it looked when I found it (very rustic), but something wasn't quite right,  and I really didn't know what to do with it!!!

I  remembered when I used the red poinsettia color for the great dresser, that I all ready sold to a very lovely couple from Boston, Ma, so I said to my husband "I think I will try red again".
Instead of poinsettia I used a

 Red Bay from Benjamin More, it's a little bit more dark but I really like it.

Well here is, hope you enjoy it.

Before!!

After!!

Until Next Time!!
