Black and Cream Desk

 I found this wonderful desk at an estate sale this past summer, but it needed a face-lift.

I sanded and primed the desk with Sherwin Williams latex adhesion primer, and the drawers were painted with ASCP in cream. 

  I then painted the body with several coats of Sherwin Williams latex enamel in black.


 The drawer pulls are from Hobby Lobby. Theye are really cute black knobs with silver studs.


 The desk is done, and ready for my client to pick up!


I really enjoyed this project, and working with my wonderful client!

Before and After Chifferobe

Before and After Chifferobe

I found this wonderful Chifferobe at an estate sale. Although it was old, I saw the potential in it!
I chose ASCP colors Old White and Louis Blue. I painted and distressed, then finished with AS clear wax. I sanded the tops and applied AS dark wax.
When fished, I displayed with vintage kitchen scale, fat French Hen, vintage bottle, French enamel house number, and blue and white Limoges platter.
