This little beauty didn’t need much. It’s solid wood, and very sturdy. But the orange stain really needed to go. I updated it with a bright white (Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace), highlighted the details with gray glaze, and then lightly distressed the edges. Now you don’t have to worry so much when your 4 year runs his toys into it over and over again. He’ll be adding to the patina!

Pine End Table
Duncan Phyfe table & 6 chairs
Vintage Duncan Phyfe style mahogany pedestal table. This table was in relatively good condition when I found it, so all it needed was a little freshening up. I did this by stripping the top and giving it a rich, dark Kona stain, and painting the pedestals with a pale beige. I made the details pop out by adding a mocha glaze and distressing the edges just a tiny bit. Now this table is ready for all your family gatherings. It includes a 12″ leaf so you can easily fit up to 8 people!
The matching set of 6 vintage chairs coordinate perfectly. They have also been updated with a richer stain, new foam and gorgeous yellow and cream fabric. The set includes 1 captain’s chair with arms, and 5 side chairs.

Antique mahogany drop leaf table
This cute little side table was screaming out for a modern update. The old look was right at home in your grandparent’s house. But the new, lighter color scheme will look perfect in any modern home. I added a pale taupe paint and whitewashed. The drawer pull was updated with glossy jet black paint.

Bombay Foyer Table
I’m in love with this little entry foyer table, with it’s rope legs, and pineapple details. I chose Teal Lake for it, after using this color on a recent Custom Order and loving it! I knew that some mocha glaze layered on top would really make the details stand out. This would be perfect in your entry foyer, in a hallway or maybe even a nightstand in your guest bedroom.

Elegant Cherry Dining Table
So simple yet so pretty. This delicate looking, cherry dining table received a rich, chocolatey stain on the top, and a fresh cream colored paint on the skirt and base. And these funky 70s cane back chairs got an identical paint job to match! Now they’re a match made in heaven!

Depression Era oak table
This vintage, oak kitchen table has definitely been around the block a few times. The former owner thought it might be from the 1920s, and I suspect that’s correct because of the “Depression Era” style of the legs.
The veneer (which is typical for the period) is peeling off, and chipped, and something or someone, has been chewing on various parts. Once I patch up all the missing parts though, this table will be beautiful once again and hopefully it’ll be around for another 100+ years!

Scandinavian Ottoman/Bench
Isn’t this table unbelievable? I’m so in love with it. The awesome details (like the fluted legs), the size….and now it can be used as either an ottoman/coffee table, OR an upholstered bench. Wouldn’t this be great at the end of your bed?! The table was painted white and then antiqued with a gray glaze

Whitewashed butcherblock table
This is a solid maple, butcher block style table. I whitewashed it to give it a very cottage, beachey vibe. The skirt and legs were warmed up with a very taupey gray paint. Now it just needs a little sand underneath!
