Creating BeautifulWhy spend so much money on "new" furniture when the "old" stuff is crafted so much better?
I rescue old furniture and give it new life. Whether it just needs painting or a completely new purpose, I use my always expanding expertise, excellent sense of color, and creativity to create budget friendly high end pieces. I have gotten enough hate mail that I felt I needed to address a misunderstanding.
I know some people just paint anything without any care.... I DO NOT! I want to make certain that everyone who sees my work understands: I DID NOT DESTROY THIS FURNITURE! Neglect, time, weather and abuse destroyed the furniture. I rescued it! I spend hours and hours woodworking, repairing, finding the perfect replacement parts and hardware and sanding/prepping these pieces before I even start to paint them! I do not take vintage high end pieces and destroy them to add "insert popular color chalk paint here". So I do not apologize to whomever sent "QUIT DESTROYING MY GRANDMOTHERS FURNITURE". You're grandmother should have taken better care of her things! Thank you!
