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.

This small breakfast table is perfect for those people who are short on dining space. Even though it’s small, it doesn’t lack for quality. The top is solid butcherblock and the legs are solid wood as well. It would also be a great desk or craft sized table!

This traditional looking cherry nightstand had served it’s purpose but my customer now needed it to look a little more modern. No more dark, reddish stain. I updated it with a cream, soft white.

My customer was in the process of moving into her new forever home, and it was time for some changes. Freshening and lightening things up were the first priority for this dresser.

This little nightstand is perfect for rooms that are short on space, like a child’s room or guest bedroom. It would even be perfect as a little extra storage in a bathroom! My customer needed it to fit in a very tight space in a guest bedroom but the original/dated finish just wasn’t working any more.

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.
I’ll be honest, this very rustic nightstand had some issues with it when I found it. The chalk paint finish on the legs felt, well…..chalky. The sides were starting to split a bit. And the top had some nail pops. In my world, none of those things are necessarily horrible. But there was definitely room for improvement!

There was absolutely nothing wrong with these solid, workhorse end tables. They’re solid wood (which is almost unheard of today!), and they had heavy duty iron bases. The rich espresso color was just feeling a bit dark and dated. So to liven things up a bit I painted them with a bright white paint then distressed the edges (as usual). But I mean, c’mon…..if I don’t distress them then the kids surely will. I’m just beating them to the punchline.
