reclaimed barn wood farm table

I just wanted to share with you a custom farm table we recently finished in a
reclaimed barn wood style. This is such a fun finish to do, and can be done in any color combination.
 



 
Here are some signs in the same finish...
 

 

 
I'm working on putting together a custom tutorial for the "reclaimed barn wood" finish,
which will be available soon!

Before & after armoire

This armoire was pretty before, but turned out beautiful after!
 
Such an inviting and soft color...and it's going in a little girls room full of fun pastels :)
 

 
Here's a snapshot of the before...unfortunately I didn't think about taking a picture
until after it had been sanded, but you get the idea!


 

This piece already had enough personality that it didn't need any
additional distressing or glazing. Sometimes less is more...nice & simple!


Just in case you're wondering, the color is Benjamin Moore's "Mill Springs Blue"- satin.

Hope you're having a happy day :)

from dark to light

I just had to share this project we've been working on because it's turned out to be one of my
all-time favorites!!These cabinets were already stunning as is, but the home owner was
 ready to go from dark to light...ah, a girl after my own heart!
 
Here's some shots of the laundry room before...
 

 
Here it is after...we finished the cabinets in antique white, with a dark walnut glaze.
There was already plenty of distressing previously done. Look how much bigger the room looks!
 




 
I really LOVE how the glaze picked up the nicks and wormholes!
 
Outside the laundry room is the mudroom area, where this beautiful built-in cabinet sits...
 
 
And here it is now...
 

 
Last of all, we refinished the master bath. Here's the before shots...
please excuse the crummy phone pics!
 

 
This room was especially brightened...such a difference!
 
 
And the mirrors were finished to match :)


 
We were thrilled with the way these cabinets turned out!
