This week I am working on catching up on life. I have quite a few “balls in the air” and am mid-project on at least three things. As I finish up, have a look at this dresser refresh from…
painted furniture
I find a lingerie chest underrated. They are a great place to store jewelry and unmentionables, don’t take up a lot of room, and can be quite attractive. Updating them doesn’t have to be difficult. Here is how you…
White Clad furniture was really popular at one time- a throwback to the vintage ice box in a more simple time. I came across two of these and figured why not make one of them little more fun? (I…
I love taking tired furniture and making it loved again. This bombay chest redo used several a-typical processes, and I am so pleased with the final product. Before I found this little number on facebook marketplace in need of…
My oldest daughter needed a place to store clothing on her new life adventure and asked me if I would make a painted dresser for her. I was honored, and of course said yes immediately. She had some requirements,…
Overall I am really enjoying the Airbnb hosting experience at The Goat Loft. So far our guest experiences have been quite lovely. I am only certain at some point there might be a less than fabulous visitor so I…
Furniture Flippin’ making a penny table
This post was originally for a Furniture Flippin’ Contest and *sponsored by ETI-Envirotex. It was my first time to use a two-part epoxy to make a penny table. I have never done that and it was super fun! The…

I have had this piece for years. I bought it at a thrift store ages ago and wasn’t really sure what to do with it. Recently a local business asked me if I had a piece or two I…
Of course I forgot the before picture.. so please just trust me that this was high gloss cherry-ish and boring. Since I am a ding-dong, let’s do things a little backwards today… Here is how the buffet looks finished:…
A few months ago I took our old hall entry table and made it over to sell in the shop. We purchased it at World Market years ago and it served us well at the old house. The style…
A few weeks ago I had a friend give me this little table. I looked at it for a while and it popped in my head that it looks a lot like the detailed and etched silver platters on…
Recently I had a client bring me a table to update. She thought it was cute, but wanted it to go with her current decor scheme and thought a shelf would make it a more useable side table. I…
After the bookshelf I decided the next thing to tackle was a kitchen island makeover (and peninsula too). I knew something eye-popping would really help get the house sold quickly. I saw this cool product and wanted to give…
