Loving this fantastic table by Larry of Pops Restorations! Larry says, "This antique cherry table top was on an old farm here in Leipers Fork, Tennessee. It was headed to the landfill, but after restoration, it looks amazing. I had to build a new base, but the top was refinished in General Finishes Antique Cherry (waterbased stain) with Enduro Satin Top Coat. The new legs were completed in Lamp Black (Milk Paint) with Enduro Satin Top Coat."
Studio Paint of Fonthill Ontario refinished this gorgeous mirror with General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint. Loving this regal look!
"This piece evolved a little from my initial vision but I think the final product turned out great. The knobs finally inspired me paint the body black and to sand the top down and try to restain it. Unfortunately, the stain came out uneven so in the end I decided to paint the entire piece. It has been refinished using General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint and sealed with dark brown wax to deepen the color slightly. New black and white knobs and drawer liner finish off the look!" - Burlap...
Gorgeous transformation from Christine Schmidt Spitz! Christine says, "I found my new passion! I purchased this piece and stripped, sanded, and repaired.

Loving this gorgeous mirror makeover from Amy of High Style Restyle_. This gold mirror was an $8 steal at a local thrift store. Don't you just love it when that happens?!

Amazing transformation to a "Pottery Barn Knockoff" from Mary Beth's Place_!

It shines again with several...
