I’m very excited to say that my college classes are out for the summer and I finally have some time on my hands to get some projects finished! I will still be working part time and hopefully take some time to explore, but my goal is to be completing a few furniture pieces each month as well as writing relevant and helpful content with tutorials, DIY projects and some videos, too. Stay up to date with me on Instagram where I post most often as I progress through projects.
Since the beginning of 2015 I have been working more with modern and mid century pieces. I pretty much swore off antique piece since they come with so any problems (musty smells, chipped veneer, sticky drawers, etc) that I either don’t know how to fix or take so much time to fix. I also love mid century furniture, which you’ve seen around here since the beginning, and that style is what many customers in my area are looking for. It doesn’t mean there won’t be antique style pieces mixed in (I still have a few in my inventory that will be posted in the next few weeks), they will just be more spaced out in between posts.
That being said, my goal is to find quality, unique pieces and put my own twist on them. I want this blog to be a place where people can find information and inspiration. Information on resources, how to paint and refinish pieces, as well as tutorials, and inspiration for fresh ways to customize your pieces and home.
To end this post I’m sharing the “before” photos of the pieces I currently have in my inventory, and what you can look forward to 🙂

This project is currently being sprayed a bright color in my spray booth, it’s a Willett buffet/dresser.
These oversized MCM nightstands have been in my inventory for a while. Still a lot of prep work to do, but they will look great with shined up hardware and new paint.

Can't wait to see the 'afters' on these!

Uh, I think you have plenty to do! BTW, I redid that exact same dresser (solid elmwood, pic #4) about 2 years ago. It practically sold the minute I listed it on CL! Lucky you with the Lane Campaign!
