General Finishes

This cute mini buffet is the sister piece to the mini china cabinet. She was painted using General Finishes Antique White Milk Paint all the way down to her "waist". The legs were left bare and freshened up with a coat of Walnut stain. The painted body was distressed back in spots to reveal the original wood stain and perfect amount of green, chippy paint that was original to the cabinet. The piece was then sealed with General Finishes Flat Out Flat for the final touch.

This desk had beautiful lines and hardware, but simply needed a little facelift. The desk body was painted with General Finishes Coastal Blue and sealed with a clear and dark wax. The top of the desk was kept in the original wood and stain. The lucite circles were removed from the drawer hardware to better compliment the new color and the handles were given a bit o' brasso to bring out the shine.

This mid-century campaign dresser was in bad aesthetic shape when I found it! The veneer was chipped away in parts, there was duck tape residue stuck across the drawers and the brass hardware was varnished almost to a black! This dresser first received an overhaul with the use of some Bondo to fix and repair the missing chuncks of veneer off of the backside corners. The whole dresser was then sanded down and then painted with General Finishes Coastal Blue and sealed with General Finishes Flat Out Flat.

This sweet, little console table received a beautiful facelift and some sexy, new legs! The top of the table was sanded and painted using General Finishes Chalk Style Paint in Slate Gray.

A crisp white knob was added as the finishing touch and the perfect contrast to the Slate Gray. The paint was sealed with a combination of clear and dark waxes.

This mid-century modern dresser was saved from the curb and spruced up with general finishes Coastal Blue milk paint. A light sanding was applied between coats and this handsome guy was completed with a clear soft wax, followed by a light application of soft, dark wax to deepen and enrich the beautiful navy blue.
