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.

Can't get enough of the makeover from Farm Fresh Homestead! Farm Fresh Homestead says, "The previous owner had spray painted it black and it was blotchy and just didn’t look good at all. The moment I saw the divided drawers I knew I wanted to make it look like a card catalog. I sanded the top to the natural wood and stained it with Minwax Early American. The dresser took 3 coats (because of the black underneath) of General Finishes Antique White. I usually only have to do 2 coats on my pieces....

"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...

Loving this simple yet classic table from Painted Perfection! Michelle of Painted Perfection says, "Wanted to share this pretty piece we finished with GF Linen Milk Paint and Java Gel!

Reblessed, LLC says "Pearl Effects are such a sophisticated way to add a metallic look to any item. We've used ours on furniture, lamps, picture frames, furniture trim, artwork, decor, and more. They can be applied as a solid metallic for a more bold "dipped" look or as a glaze for a more subtle look. We generously applied the Argentine Pearl and the Champagne Pearl over the Driftwood Milk Paint as a glaze. We then decided to add the Van Dyke Brown glaze over it to give the silver tones more...

Quite the transformation from Second Grace Vintage! Jeanine of Second Grace Vintage says, "This classic piece has been given a breath of new life.

It matches my beach chic dresser that I placed in my foyer and tones the space down. I also want to show you how well the treads have worn.
