Check this out....

So if you have seen what I do 

you have probably figured out that 

I LOVE thinking out of the box when it comes to redoing my 

furniture pieces.....

Here is my new project

Fresh off of the truck

(Yes Mike's new truck...lol)

I didn't even dust it :)

This piece is a lot bigger than it looks in the pics

and is all wood 

in other words

HEAVYYYYY!!!!

It's a fantastic piece

wish they made them like this today!!!!

(which is why I love redoing old pieces)

SOOOOOO

This piece could be used as a buffet, entry piece or even a media table

Endless possibilities...

But when I looked at it for the first time 

I seen a dry bar

Pulling the drawers out and adding wine holder

baskets for accessories....

ANY IDEAS OR COMMENTS

Send them my way....

Maybe you are seeing something I'm not

:)

Here is a Vintage TV Cabinet I made into a dry bar

See what just a little imagination and 

creativity can do....

Dining room set project underway...

Chair cushions recovered and looking

FABULOUS

Chairs sanded and ready to be painted

Here is the before....

I have thought long and hard and have decided

I will be painting this gorgeous  set black

and if possible staining the top of the table

Once it is sanded down I will be able to tell :)

Soooo excited to get this project moving and can't wait to see it finished!!!

As for my last completed project

I refinished a table for my friend 

Big John

Here is what I started with...

 Table being stripped and then sanded 

and then stripped again

Ready to be stained

Finally finished.......

 Who knew a table so small could be sooo much work

but so worth it :)

Keep in mind when taking on a painted piece of furniture that you want to stain....

EVERY BIT

of the paint needs to be removed before staining

(and for the record it sounds so much 
easier than it actually is)

ONTO THE DINING SET ROOM REDO

CAN NOT WAIT TO POST 

PICTURES OF THE PROGRESS

STAY TUNED...

Here is a couple of totally cool ideas you may just see me doing and posting pics of...

My Monday Night Misson....

FINALLYYYYYY.....

This little beauty is ready to be stained

For my good friend 

Just a note.....Before taking on a piece of painted furniture that you 

think would look absolutely fabulous stained

ITS A LOT OF WORK!!!!

I am positive it will look amazing 

but still alot of work ;)

Progress

This table will be gorgeous when finished but it is taking foreverrrrr

 Stain and paint need to be completely removed so when I re stain it.... It will look amazing!!!!
