black side cabinet

This is the final of the projects I recently completed for my mom.  This little cabinet with it's glass door is a piece she's owned for years, but her style has moved away from it's previous white-washed blond wood finish.  I refinished this cute rustic piece in the same black finish as the other pieces.





black 2 drawer side table

This is the second of 3 projects I recently completed for my mom.  She purchased this second-hand side table at the same time as her double headboard and foot board (previous post).  I refinished this uniquely detailed piece to match the headboard for her guest bedroom.  The piece use to be finished in a dark and dated stain and had older fashioned pulls on the drawers which I replaced with a single classic knob in a weathered nickel finish.  Unfortunately I forgot to take a before shot!

black antique bed frame

I packed up my supplies and equipment and headed to Victoria for a week in October to complete this project for my dear mom!  She found this double headboard and foot board for her guest bedroom.  I refinished this antique piece for her in black, without any distressing, and protected it with my usual water-based satin finish varnish.  

As it turns out, she might only be using the headboard so stay tuned for the foot board to possibly be up for sale as a headboard!
