Vanity turned into two night stands. Took a vanity apart and gave it a dipped look! Antique White and Java Gel Stain with HPTC Satin. I used Blue painters tap and a lot of measuring to make the lines perfect for this look. It was a task but I'm glad I did it!

This buffet was missing a lot of the bottom leg/trim area all around the bottom. I had to cut new pieces, use a lot of plastic wood filler and pin nails! I rebuilt the base and gave her a fresh coat of Seagull Gray. It's now a timeless piece that will last a lifetime!

The top of this was badly scratched so I filled the cracks with wood filler and painted it in a custom mixed green. The drawers were in good shape so I freshened them up with gel stain.

Queenstown Rescue

When I got this piece it had the legs cut off and gold roller ball wheels on it. I Took them off, added new legs which didnt fit. So, I took the set screw out of the legs, turned them upside down and drilled the set screw in the opposite end so they would be attached upside down. It worked out great! The hardware was missing so I added plain oak knobs to give it a modern farmhouse look.
Teal Riesling

Winning Category
For this teal I mixed four colors. Klein Blue, Emerald, Snow White, & Lamp Black. My sister and I had a couple glasses of wine the night we mixed it so I became more adventurist with using such a bright color! It has become a very requested color and a lot of other furniture artist have asked me for the recipe! I am happy to share! This finish was sprayed with an HVLP sprayer and top coated with GF HPTC Flat. Java Gel Stain is the top drawer color.
