I LOVE THE CHALLENGE

of reviving an old, tired or discarded piece of furniture and turning it into something beautiful and functional. From the moment you acquire that piece until the moment that you finish it, you follow a journey that is full of surprises. Often, the process of what to do and how to do it evolves out of unforeseen circumstances, but that's the fun of it. You never know where your inspiration will come from. I hope you enjoy these transformations, and that you are inspired to take on a project of your own.

BISTRO SET - REDEAUX

BEFORE
So, it may be too hot to sit outside these days, but at least there will be something inviting to look at from the window!  This was a makeover for some furniture that has spent way too many winters outside.  The prep for me is always the worst part (but I know, the most important), and these babies needed a lot of prep.  I like the "fun" finish stuff, like the painting and recovering that brings a piece to life.

  1. Looks great! What finish did you put on them, it's a little hard to see. Metallic?
