Hello! My name is Donna and I am a mother of 5 amazing children! I absolutely adore giving new life to old and outdated pieces; as their intended purpose or one completely new thus Reincarnating them! I would have to say my pieces are elegant and regal! I try to stay true to the original beauty of my furniture by leaving as much of the beautiful wood grain visible as possible. I put my heart and soul into my pieces and feel like it shows through into my work.
