"SOLID OAK inside and out. This piece was pristine when I got it, like it had never been used. Heavy, sturdy, like brand new. Drawers glide with ease. The old rusty vintage casters that I’ve been holding onto for about a year were my inspiration for going with a rustic industrial vibe.
Many paint colors went into this starting with a base of General Finishes Lamp Black. A very cool product called “rust in a jar” by Autentico Paint USA was used to create textured old rust looking areas...

"When you create for long enough, inevitably along will come a piece that you struggle to list for sale. Please welcome, Clevette to the collection!
We found her hidden away in the basement of a home we ended up buying as a flip last year. Her top was heavily aged but her character and charm undeniably drew us in.
My dad selected the best pine boards at the lumber yard and we laid her a new custom top. After several rounds of cleaning, this girl's mahogany tannins still bleed so I opted...
"Sometimes...when I’m waiting for paint to dry...I squeeze in a little project. This little cutelydute bench was a curbside find. I gave it a quick little refresh by removing the dated, flouncy fabric as well as removing the peeling veneer, which that flouncy fabric was covering. I used General Finishes Lamp Black and then I sealed it with (my favorite) Polyvine Ltd wax finish varnish in dead flat. I used some leftover, fun fabric to reupholster the seat." - REmade

"Ok I am OVER THE MOON with this makeover!! The back was completely warped and broken and every joint was loose. I took the time to re-glue and clamp every single joint on this desk and cut a new, maple back for it. After taking care of the structural issues, I sanded it down and painted it in General Finishes Lamp Black and after removing the veneer, stained the front piece in GF Whitewash water based wood stain. I top coated the entire piece and added dainty new knobs even adding one on the...
"Believe it or not, these black beauties used to be a vanity!! After carefully separating them, I patched any of the nail holes from the center drawer piece, sanded them and painted them in General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint. After a good distressing I sealed them in GF High Performance Top Coat for protection. Lastly, I sanded down the original handles and sealed the natural wood tone of those. It was so gorgeous it didn't need stain!" - Upcycling by Amy

"I sanded, painted, sanded and sealed this beautiful vintage Drexel sideboard. I was originally only planning to do a light distressing, but I got a wild hair and decided to go a little (okay, a lot) heavier on the distressing. Not a look I normally do and I know it’s not for everyone, but I wanted to do something a little different. What do you think? Paint Color: General Finishes Lamp Black, sealed with GF Satin Finishing Wax." - Little House Of Four

"This piece received a complete makeover! I’ve been looking for another one ever since my last one sold so I was pretty excited when this one popped up on marketplace! It was very ugly but I knew that wasn’t anything that couldn’t be fixed.... First I removed the weights and pendulum then removed the ugly clock face and replaced it with a new battery operated one! I wanted it to look like a very old antique clock so I added a beautiful new crown to the top to add more character and height!...
