Dresser Refurnish Ideas

I got this small dresser for free and really want to make it my next project. I have already removed the hardware and started to strip the paint from the top but I have no idea what I should do from there. Sand it, primer it and paint? Or should I try to stain the wood? I would like to use it as a nightstand but because my room is without a color scheme or overall style I'm open to any and all ideas.

Upcycled Metal and Glass Goodwill Table

I was at the Goodwill as I always am a few times a week and I spotted this metal bottom and glass top table. I thought it would be a challenge because I'm not usually keen on pieces like ...»
this but something about it was calling my name. I paid 20 bucks for it. After it was sitting for quite sometime the idea of chalkboard paint for the surface came to me. I sprayed the top with Krylon black chalkboard paint, which is perfect for writing those little reminders of what to TiVo, what not to miss, or even just a daily reminder of how beautiful life is. As for the bottom half I decided on a green shade in Pistachio from the Krylon line. The bottom was so detailed I decided to spray paint it instead of using a brush. You can see the step by step process and more photos at my blog....http://quirkycool.blogspot.com/2013/04/upcycled-metal-and-glass-table.html

Vintage Painted Table

I acquired this vintage chiroparactic table in 1995. The shop owner told me that it had been painted by a mother of a young son. She had recently passed away. Check out my blog post for more!

Old Door Headboard - Made for a King Size Bed

We love making headboards out of these old doors - there is so much character to each one of them. This headboard was shipped to one of our Customers in FL. ...»

The doors we use are usually 80+ years old and have had their share of various paint treatments over the years.

These old door headboards make a great conversation piece and are sure to become the focal point of any bedroom.

Keep us in mind if you're not up to doping the trim work and want us to do that for you. We do work with a large DIY Client base that have us do the work and they will add the finishing touches themselves.

Thank you for the business!
