This Hoosier cabinet makeover was so much fun! My client was given this cabinet and it was in pretty rough condition. Although the flour bin and sifter were in great shape, it was missing the roll-down door on the top and the decorative trim on the bottom of the base was no longer attached. The floor… Continue reading Hoosier Cabinet Reborn
This dresser may go down as one of my all-time favorite makeovers. It was a custom order from a client who wanted me to give it a fresh face. It was a sentimental piece which once belonged to her father-in-law. There were several coats of paint on the entire dresser, and there were two small… Continue reading Sentimental Dresser Becomes Beautiful Again

I absolutely love the story behind this desk. My client took over her father's business, and he had taken it over from his father. This desk was the original desk in her grandfather's office. You can actually feel the history and sentiment when you look at it. It was well worn from generations of use.… Continue reading The Sweetest Story of a Desk Reimagined

He frequently opens his home up to friends, family and the community and was looking for a way to seat a crowd, while being able to store the tables when not in use. I came up with a design that would allow the… Continue reading Custom-Built and Personalized Table
When a client contacted me to revive her grandmother's dresser, estimated at about 100 years old, I was so excited for the opportunity! Restoring old, sentimental pieces makes me swoon!! Upon seeing the dresser in person, I realized it was going to be a big undertaking. All of the drawers needed to have the bottoms… Continue reading Saving Grandma’s Dresser
I am so honored to be able to work on this vanity. It originally belonged to my client's grandmother, so sentiment was a huge part of this makeover. (and you all know what a sentimental squish I am when it comes to furniture!) The vanity has clean lines and is in great shape. The finish… Continue reading Nothing Wrong with a Little Vanity
I client recently asked me to build a cabinet to house a vintage stereo system, including two large speakers, a receiver and a CD player. I got to work on measuring dimensions and designing their cabinet.

I was asked to refinish this beautiful buffet. It has been in the client's family for generations and had seen a lot of use. This piece was in great structural condition, but the finish was in bad shape. The top had a lot of stains and rings, and the old finish had become textured and… Continue reading Back to its Original Glory
