Country dining set

This item has been sold

This 5-piece dining set had seen better days. Lots of daily use had taken a toll. Not to mention the colors were feeling a bit dated. My customer wanted to use it in her dining room and knew she wanted a white/gray combo but didn’t know exactly how to incorporate that. Our solution? To lighten it up and change the color scheme. The top and the 4 chairs were painted gray. The table skirt and pedestal went white.  We used a cool gray that complimented the darker gray on her walls.

Elegant Mahogany Dining Table

This item has been sold

This super elegant, solid mahogany dining table needed a whole new style. I accomplished that by adding a matte gray finish on the top, and a bright white on the legs and skirt.  Now it leans more towards a farmhouse chic style than a traditional style.  The chairs and bench were finished out to match.

Vintage Cherry Dining Table

I scored big on this table. The owners were practically giving it away. But as you can probably imagine, that was for good reason. It was in rough, and I mean ROUGH, shape.

Depression Era Dining Table & 3 Chairs

IMG_0839
I’m loving the legs on this vintage, wood Depression Era table. Not the routine, 4 leg, or pedestal style. Instead it has 6 legs. The table, more than likely, dates back to the early 30’s and is surprisingly good condition for a table of this age. The plan, at the moment, is to restain the top, but paint the base and skirt. There’s only 3 chairs at the moment but I’m going to start searching for a 4th, to complete the set.

Vintage Jacobean Dining Set

IMG_0059
This unbelievable Jacobean, oak dining table set had been my customer’s family for decades. It’s constructed of solid oak and meant to last several generations. But after my customer’s first unsuccessful try at staining it gray, she brought it to me and explained her vision. No more dark blue-gray. It needed to be a soft, warm, taupe-gray. so that it would blend in with her elegant dining room features. I ended up mixing a paint wash of the same paint color we used on the base, and used it to “stain” the table top. It was the perfect solution!

Oval-ish Oak Dining Table

This item has been sold IMG_7380
This solid oak table had quite a 70s vibe going on when I found it. But the beautiful shape, and intricate carved details, screamed to be showcased with some paint and glaze! My customer chose Glidden’s Teal Lake with a dark gray stained top.

It easily seats 6 without the leaf, and 8 with it.

I found this set when googling one night and I think it has the exact same vibe we’re going for with ours:

Rock Maple table with 4 chairs

This item has been soldimage

Solid rock maple kitchen or dining room table. If you’re looking for a super solid, durable table to withstand years of hard use, then this is the table for you.  The legs are a glossy, light gray.  For the top I did a paint wash, which is a mix of part water, part paint. This gave it just the right shade of gray, so you can still see the beautiful wood. The set of 4 matching chairs have been updated with the same paint as the table base, new foam and designer fabric in the same gray tones. All pieces are solid wood, which is hard to find these days!

Modern Duncan Phyfe style

This item has been soldIMG_6720
Oh yes I did! I’ve done so many unbelievable makeovers on vintage Duncan Phyfe style tables, for my wonderful customers. And after each one I was so sad to see it go. It seemed like it would be the perfect choice for our kitchen. I really was going for a beachy, aged look. But after living it for a while the rest of the family decided that we really needed to go back to a round table in our kitchen. And since my look was so specific for our home (gray, weathered wood), I felt like I needed to change it up a bit before selling. The dark is a rich, dark walnut.  The double pedestals received a satin creamy white, with light distressing.  And the table retains it’s original brass toe caps.

This table will fit 6 comfortably without the leaf, and 8 with it. Take a look at the 2 transformations! [Read more…]
