Emmy's Table/Desk

Emmy needed a desk for the office she was creating in her house. She found this table on Craig's List and asked me to refinish it. As usual I forgot to take a before picture so here are a few in progress!

I stripped the top and stained it dark walnut then painted the bottom white with brown antiquing.All done and looking very pretty in the office!

My First Sale!

This was an old drop leaf table that my in-laws gave us when we bought our first house with a dining room. It had a large crack in the wood and the veneer was old and dry. I decided to prime and paint it white with brown antiquing. I didn't need the table so I posted it on Craig's List and sold it in one day!

Bedroom Bench

I made this bench for my bedroom and upholstered it myself!
It isn't perfect but it was a good first try at building something.

I love the fabric!

Upholstered Headboard

I made this queen headboard and upholstered it in denim for Josh's Room - he helped me.

Blanket Chest

We have had this blanket chest for about 20 years - it's been through three kids and a few dogs!  It was time for a face lift.  I stripped and stained the top, painted the bottom black, distressed it and finished it all with a few coats of Polycrylic by Minwax.  It looks almost new again!
