"Talk about HANDSOME!!!
This table is a treasured family heirloom of Christina and her family. Originally belonging to her great great grandma! To say the pressure was on was an understatement!
We decided to remove all of the veneer on both shelves since it was VERY damaged. Sanded it all down, treated it with a coat of General Finishes Pre-Stain Conditioner since the shelves are made of a different wood than the legs. I needed all the help I could get to get the stain to go on nice and...

"Talk about elbow grease! Nicole knew her bedroom set had some great bones and it was SOLID wood but she wanted a color update with it. After sanding it down completely to bare wood I used the General Finishes pre-stain conditioner to help it stain more evenly and then stained it in a custom mix of General Finishes Java and Black Gel Stains and finally sealing it in 3 coats of Arm-R-Seal to protect it for years to come!" - Upcycling by Amy

Custom washstand in General Finishes Medium Brown Dye Stain, Arm-R-Seal Semigloss and Fusion Bedford.
This table is just an instant classic, am I right???
We were approached by a larger business to create a farmhouse style with a traditional twist sofa table. We custom built this table from the ground up just for them! We used General Finishes pre-stain wood conditioner and followed with the General Finishes Antique Walnut gel stain and sealed with their Arm-R-Seal in a satin finish.
"Love how this dresser picked for customization turned out! General Finishes Antique Brown Water Based Stain and Arm-R-Seal Semi-Gloss are perfect!" - Flipping Fabulous
"Another custom request out the door. Lynn wanted a Walnut log slice end table for her daughter so we made it happen! After removing all the bark we sanded it, epoxied the cracks in the wood and sealed it in General Finishes Arm-R-Seal in Semi Gloss. The customer got to pick the legs and the specific height she wanted and that's it!!" - Upcycling by Amy

"Walnut build. This is probably my favorite table due to the incredible grain. This table will see many years of family gatherings, and has plenty of room in its 9 foot length to seat extended family." - Mack Wood Worx
"This table was picked out of a new line we brought in of unfinished, new furniture, made of solid wood. No mdf, no particle board, no veneer. It's really been fun creating pieces that we know are great quality and will last a lifetime!

Cool small humidor that I refinished recently. Was pretty rough when it came in but it went back looking like new!! Finished in...
"I had some time last week and this 1957 Drexel Campagna drop leaf table had been sitting around the shop since last year, so I figured now was as good as time as any!! The apron, legs and chairs are all finished in General Finishes Enduro White Poly and as I was sanding the top down I noticed that it was a beautiful Walnut Veneer with Pecan accent so all that needed was to be sealed with GF Arm-R-Seal to make it pop! Reupholstered the chairs in a cool check pattern and it was complete. This...
"Benjamin Moore Avocado on the outside, and stripped down to the bare base of MCM Walnut. We've brought these ladies into the modern world and haven't asked them to give up any of their originality in the process! With beautiful grains like that, why would we need anything further than General Finishes Arm-R-Seal over the drawers and tops! Beautiful original sweeping brass pulls." - Restoration Reserve
Made this walnut coffee table and finished it with Seal A Cell and Arm R Seal.
"Vintage Mahogany Chest of Drawers. The top and all the drawers were sanded down and clear coated with oiled based polyurethane which is General Finishes Arm-R-Seal. The exterior perimeter was painted in black chalk paint and then distressed and sealed. I actually kept the original hardware only because I didn’t want anything flashy that would draw your attention away from that wonderful veneer. So I just sprayed it with hammered black satin spray." - Steener's Attic Refinished, Repurposed and...
Java and sealed with Arm R Seal satin. Scuffed sanded the veneer top. Stain applied with a foam brush and wiped it back and I did get some lines… so my final coat was a thin amount of the gel with a roller (more of a paint method) and it turned out beautiful. Some areas did pick up slight texture from the roller, but nothing offensive or anything that I would try to fix.
"I asked the client what they wanted. She said, "Black....and just do your thing". I love when they say that!
So, this beautiful, mahogany gal is all dressed out in black, but with some sliming stripes, and some raised design on the drawers and doors. These stunning silver pulls add the perfect finish to the look." - Designs by Dee
"Solid Cherry, she has an amazing top we just couldn't get over- so we bleached the red tones out and were left with a fabulous neutral! No stain at all, just clear coated in our absolute favorite hand applied General Finishes Arm-R-Seal.
Base has been refreshed in Persian Blue with Pitch Black and light grey glazes for detail." - Restoration Reserve
First coat of satin ARS on walnut cabinet top. Nothing compares to the look of walnut hardwood. Arm-R-Seal, visibly drives home the point.
"This solid mahogany antique chest of drawers (circa the late 1800s/early 1900s) is by far the most beautiful piece of furniture I’ve ever had the pleasure of refinishing. The quality of the wood speaks for itself, so it’s no wonder mahogany furniture is so difficult to find these days. In addition to the rare Knapp Joints on the drawers, each one has a functioning lock with the original key.
I sanded off the existing finish and stain, conditioned the natural wood and sealed it with my...

"General Finishes Empire Gray bodies and a deep stained top - but as I was sanding and stripping down, I quickly decided it might be a highly couture look if we stained the top rows too! Ended up with a high-end custom look instead of just a painted dresser. Super modern and yet completely timeless set- for years to come! Hand applied Arm-R-Seal top over a deep Kona stain on those oak fronts." - Restoration Reserve
"A Repaint Job turned Original Restore....
This client had done this desk once awhile back..... unfortunately, she was a bit disappointed in the way the paint looked and decided maybe we should give it a shot in our studio! We started stripping it down again, and found ourselves some beautiful walnut... and I don't just mean veneer..... Those grains match the entire depth of the wood.
Soooooo she loved the aging in the legs which weren't painted previously and we decided a timeless look...

"Whew... this might have been my longest running project to date .Lori asked me to refresh her secretariat and honestly, from the picture, it didn't look in too bad of shape but if you zoom in you can see all the crackle texture on the finish that all had to be stripped off with chemicals and then sanded down. The outside was stained in a mix of General Finishes Antique Walnut and Java Gel Stains and sealed in Arm-R-Seal. The inside was painted in General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint and...

"I’m not going to lie. I was “Blue” when I bought this cabinet, sight unseen, and was a little disappointed. The “Solid wood” description turned out to be a wood frame with thin hardboard sides. lesson learned. Again. I contemplated just donating it somewhere but I really liked the compact style and figured there must be SOMEONE out there that can use a little lightweight vintage record cabinet….. for some extra storage. So while it has ALL the right style, please know this isn’t a super...

"Y’all say ‘hey’ to Ben. He’s that guy standing in the corner of the room…… Filled with Utilitarian bulk and gorgeous eyes. Hefty and strong this old Empire guy has the bones of an ox and the mahogany burl veneers of a model.
Top is a solid piece if chestnut toned walnut that makes all the brunette ladies out there jealous. One single swirled curl in the middle.
He’s trimmed out in General Finishes Twilight, a rich deep navy with hardcore midnight blue-purple undertones- which agree with...
"The Annika Set.
Annika reminds me of a beautiful blond hair, blue eyed Sweed. She's got strong features but gentle in stature and grace. Earthy and versatile, light and airy. Annika here is a modern dresser and nightstand combination set. She had some fabulous graining that we absolutely HAD to pair with a perfect white.
Couldn't you see this literally ANYWHERE? Clean lines and ultra durable finish in a simple crisp white by Benjamin Moore. Drawers and base have been sealed in General...
