Typical to Treasured

The last project I finished was furniture that was made this year! It was a different experience working with new furniture. My client showed me a couple of inspiration pictures and then her bedspread and said those three words I dread... "I trust you". She wanted rustic and blue and white. So we used ASCP Provence and Old Ochre with both a clear and dark wax. These pieces were HUGE so I went out to her house to complete them. When I was done, I told her if she ever wanted to get rid of them, to let me know! I loved them! It was awesome to furniture that is mass produced and turn it into pieces no one else has.

The before pictures...




And the after pictures!


One mean drawer wouldn't go in for the after pictures, but I am sure you can imagine it there :) 


And I finished these pieces up late one night, so we took the pictures without drawers. Again, I am sure your imagination can help fill in the gaps.





This project was special to me. I got to spend time with a sweet friend and get to know her even better. AND her garage is so much cleaner than mine! You would have thought it would have inspired me to clean mine up... if you had thought that, you would be wrong. Maybe I will clean it and organize it. But until then, I have projects to keep me busy.
