"Vintage, solid rock maple buffet made by Young Republic. This was updated using General Finishes Milk Paint in Antique White and was lightly distressed. The original, antique brass hardware was left as is." - Garage 9 v2
"Vintage Regency 9 Drawer Buffet/Media/Chest
This piece came in structurally perfect but a cosmetic mess. Originally finished in "dirty yellow" with chips, nicks and dents. At 74" long it needed height to give it the presence it deserved. 4 corner mount legs were added. An additional 2 legs were bolted through the center to fully support its length and weight. Finished in timeless General Finishes Antique White. Sealed in General Finishes High Performance flat Topcoat." - Raised Expectations...

A simple glass and Antique brass finish pull was the perfect compliment." - Raised Expectations

A custom top was built and added in a light natural "driftwood" inspired dye stain wash. The body has been...

"Obtaining this darling- we got a heads up as a curb alert from a client and friend while she was in a car, leaving town for the airport. (Y’all are seriously the BEST about hollering when you see good stuff on the curb!!!)
Anyways it was sitting out in the rain, and had the worst purple-grey I’d ever seen … latex no less so it was already starting to bubble.
We immediately started pulling the paint off (like seriously as soon as I got it on my covers porch) before it hardened again and...

"I recently restored these staircases and their handrails in a historic building in Newburgh, NY. The handrails are a mix of old existing walnut, and new walnut where the handrails & fittings were missing. On these handrails I used GF Antique Walnut Gel Stain and 2 coats of Arm-R-Seal gloss followed by 1 coat of Arm-R-Seal satin. I really love the deep rich quality of the Gel Stain and the way that the Arm-R-Seal lays down, and how these products can be easily hand applied."

"What an incredible transformation this table has had! The paint job was pretty tired when my client found it and was in desperate need of a makeover.
I stripped the old paint so we could start fresh. There was a ton of wear/water damage on the bottom which was made of an MDF substrate. We added a wooden bottom and I used an epoxy wood filler to fill the gap between the table and the new bottom, sanded and shaped it to the original and now it looks like it has always been that way. And it’s...
