A Mattawan couple had this dresser and table they wanted updated. They wanted the dresser stained cherry and the table in walnut to match other furniture in their house.

We removed the old stain on both pieces, filled the small hole in the table and Diane used General Finishes Gel stain (Vintage Walnut) for the table while the client provided the Cherry stain for the dresser. They are replacing the handles on the dresser

Next project is a small hutch that we will have available should anyone want it. Picture will follow once completed.

A young couple from Marne (originally from Shelbyville) wanted their young daughter’s bed refreshed. After removing 3 (different) coats of paint, Diane stained the bed using General Finishes Mahogany gel stain. She added General Finishes Satin top coat

One of the original wooden wheels was missing so we replaced all wheels for easy movement. This was a challenging project removing all the paint from the spindles and grooves on both the footboard and headboard but it turned out great

A set of eight chairs and table was requested to have Diane update to the clients specifications. The table is painted in the same gray as the chairs with the table legs painted white to compliment it. Because of the size and weight of the table, we don’t have any complete setup photos, so use your imagination a little bit here. Comments are welcome and appreciated. If you have a project you’d like updated, leave us a message. We’d be happy to discuss ideas with you and as always we hope you share our page with your friends and family.

We were asked to restore this table and chair set to the original stain (or as close as possible). This series of photos shows the original stain, the sanded version and how close we were able to get to the original stain color.

Table, base, leafs and chairs all turned out looking like a brand new set. If you have something you’d like updated send us a DM with a photo of your project. We’d be happy to discuss ideas with you.

Diane and I want to welcome all the new followers to our little page. As spring approaches, we’ve lined up several projects to work on, including one or two pieces Diane has been holding on to in hopes of creating something someone might want in their home. Stay tuned for photos and thanks to everyone who has trusted us with their furniture.

As this year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to thank all of our clients who have trusted us with their furniture these past several years. We look forward to the upcoming year and any projects you may have in mind. Happy new year!

An Oshtemo woman was referred to us and asked if we could update her end tables and coffee table. After a brief consultation, she decided to stain the tops and paint the cabinet. She chose Heirloom’s All-in-One Patina (burnt cinnamon) for the cabinet and Golden Pecan to stain the top and bottom. We then added a satin top coat to protect the finish.

A Gobles woman saw Diane’s work and asked if we could help with this small table. After consulting with her it was decided to paint the table in colors that matched the homes decor

Diane used Fusion Mineral Paint (Bone white) on the table legs and All-in-One paints Brick (a burnt cinnamon color) on the table top.

Comments are encouraged.

Diane had this TV cabinet and we’re looking for opinions whether to refurbish this with or without the doors on. She’ll stain the top, paint the outside and paint the inside a light color so that objects will be seen easier. Please feel free to provide your opinions below. Thank you
