Barn Wood Boxes :)

 After

 Here is another trunk re-purpose into a coffee table with barn wood for top

 Inside is lined with old grain sacks



 Here is a Buffet a client brought me and wanted turned into a tv console.  Before

 After, painted ASCP Olive and dark waxed with barn wood top (the original top was press wood, strange because the rest of the piece was solid wood.  weird)

  

This was one of my favorite redo's  so far.  It was an antique table that someone was throwing out because the top was broken and over all it was pretty beat up.  I cut the pedestal down to make it into a coffee table hight.  Stripped, sanded and stained the top dark.  The base is painted ASCP duck egg , lightly distressed an waxed with clear and dark wax.  I LOVE IT!!!!

Painted buffet

I just love a good old piece of furniture, don't you?  I had someone bring me this beauty.  It was pulled out of a built-in her Grandparents shop.  I would love to find more pieces like this one.  As for the paint she wanted to to have all the character with all the dings and scratches in tact.  Here is a before picture.
I love love love the shape and the pulls.  The color she picked as a lime green.  I painted 2 coats then distressed.  Finally it was time for wax.  I love how the dark wax added so much dimension to the piece.  It made it look new old :) I just love it and wish it was going in my house!!  Thanks for stopping by :)
