"Navy & Gold is one of my favorite combinations and what better Navy than Coastal Blue by General Finishes. This color was 4:1 Coastal Blue:China Blue to give it a bit brighter pop! Finished in high gloss. It has a beautiful sheen to compliment the gold leaf pulls." - The Broken Masterpiece    
"Trust me when I say this old Victorian era rocker had seen better days. The wicker was unraveling in areas, it looked as if a dog chewed the rockers. The fabric on the spring loaded cushion was hideous. The old white paint was dingy and dirty and chipping off. It was a hot mess. Do I have a before photo? No. No I do not. You have to take my word, it was a hot mess!  I patched the dog chews, glued the unraveling. Reupholstered the seat and painted it in Lamp Black by General Finishes and...

Gorgeous solid wood dresser/buffet with loads of storage! This would be a gorgeous tv console and if I don’t get rid of it fast, it might be MY gorgeous tv console! Complete farmhouse transformation for this piece. Top stripped and sanded to bare wood, base painted in...

"I took this plain, wood filing cabinet and spiffed it up a bit. I wanted it to have an industrial look. I used General Finishes Lamp Black to paint the trim and hardware and dry brush the body. The front is a transfer by Re·design with Prima called Industrial Mechanics (blueprint). Everything was sealed with a flat top coat. The final addition was adding new legs." - REmade    
"This piece came to me as quite a mess... the wallpaper inside the hutch would have been a big hurdle on its own but include that with the 5 layers of paint underneath it, the random can lid that was permanently adhered inside the lower cabinet and the tacks on almost every shelf under all the paint. I didn't really know what I was getting into but I got into it pretty darn quick. It took over two weeks of sanding, peeling wallpaper, scraping chemicals off on repeat to get it to a point that...
"Reverent Gray by General Finishes is one of my favorite neutrals!" - The Furniture Redeemer    
"The fluting, The deep rich color, The brass hardware. This one has it all! Started pulling off all those 80’s details. Behind that bulky trim was very simplistic curved sides, but a mismatched front. That’s when I decided to have a base made that would mimic the sides and create a more cohesive look. I also was not fond of the trim detail under the top drawer; but when I removed it there was about an 1/8” gap! That’s when my wheels started turning and I immediately thought of fluting! A style...
"My super lovely client chose this gorgeous Avalon sideboard out of my available stock and gave me the brief - pink, blue, white, gold and as much of the wood saved as possible. The design was very much led by where the veneer was damaged and had to be covered and I'm super chuffed with it. When I showed the end result the response was "It's incredible! Is it really mine?" Not going to lie - it made me well up a bit - in a very good way! Paint by General Finishes: Persian Blue and Ballet Pink...

"WOWZA is all I can say. Started with Wise Owl Paint clear primer, coat of General Finishes Driftwood Milk Paint, Saltwash mixed with Driftwood and applied for the old world look, then layered a coat GF Queenstown Gray. Sanded it back smooth to get the Driftwood to pop out and distressed." - Repurpose 4 A New Purpose  
"Pretty in green buffet. This custom piece wasn't in bad shape but needed a pop of color. There will be a lot more of this color in my furniture painting future, it's truly lovely. Paint: Westminster Green by General Finishes. Original brass hardware." - Flowers in Winter        
"8 drawer dresser with plenty of storage. Stripped the top of the thick cherry finish to find cool wood grain so I opted to sand and seal it. That’s the natural color! Body refinished in a 50/50 mix of General Finishes Alabaster & Snow White. Slightly distressed throughout. New oil rubbed bronze hardware." - Elm Street Designs    
"After some good old fashioned demo I repaired the nail holes and missing veneer and sanded them all down. I also filled in the old handle holes for the lower drawers. I painted them in General Finishes Lamp Black and sealed them in the High Performance Topcoat. Finally, added the new brushed gold handles and they are ready to shine in their new home!" - Upcycling by Amy    

"This Dixie nine drawer dresser turned out so pretty! She was kinda raggedy before with a very tired finish. No structural issues, just a ton of nicks and gouges. This gorgeous blue is a custom mix of two parts China Blue and one part Perfect Gray from General Finishes. It’s not as purple as a periwinkle, not as navy as navy and not as gray as a blue gray. It’s just a lovely blue. I was inspired to create this color by a blue in one of my drawer liners. I was so excited to use the color and...

"Bassett 9 drawer dresser/media console. The top was laminate which I’m not ever a fan of so I planked it with lathe wood, did a flood coat of ebony filler, then sanded & stained in dark walnut. I cut the base off and added black metal feet. Refinished in General Finishes Lamp Black Milk Paint." - Elm Street Designs    
"What a special piece for me! This was a sweet little find and I was super excited to transform this beauty!! This cabinet was completely stripped and sanded. The original wood details were top coated with polyurethane for added protection and the remaining wood was refinished in General Finishes Lamp Black, distressed and black waxed. The interior was also completely sanded and sealed in polyurethane." - Estrella Design    

"This awesome table can be used as an accent table, nightstand or side table. It was previously painted and it was stripped and sanded down to bare wood. Then painted in Lamp Black by General Finishes and decoupaged with a print from Bubblegum Yum. All was topcoated with satin finish for protection." - Rockin Furniture Revivals by Blea & Co.

"General Finish products used include Medium Brown Dye Stain, Espresso Water Based Wood Stain, and Dark Chocolate Milk Paint. The lotus flowers on the drawer sides were all done by hand with the Espresso Stain and water. Found a grain enhancer that seemed to work with the products."

"When I found these high back dining chairs with perfectly intact cane, I knew I had to have them! I loved how chic they were and knew they were destined to be black! The seats had seen better days, so I tried my hand at reupholstering and I am quite proud of how they turned out! I just love the new coordinating herringbone fabric! They would look fabulous in a modern home! Paint: General Finishes Lamp Black Fabric: JOANN Fabric and Craft Stores Artwork: Danbury ReStore" - sincerely_katiek...
"Gorgeous French chest painted in General Finishes Perfect Gray Milk Paint."     
"What a difference a new paint and stain color can make! This set was painted Lamp Black by General Finishes and the table top was stripped and stained in GF Whitewash Water Based Stain. A winning combination!" - Flipping Unbelievable    
Have I told you how much I love chartreuse?? This old girl needed a refresh! She was solid structurally but looked tired. Once I got the old finish off the top, I knew that I wanted to keep it wood. And I loved the wood details on the top drawer so that just had to be wood as well. I tried taping off the details fifty ways to Sunday to protect them from the paint but I just ended up with a lot of wasted tape. I remembered when I first started this business, people were using Vaseline as a...
"When classic black meets deep woodgrain it’s always a perfect match. This small chest is handmade from solid oak by a local furniture maker. I love the simplicity of this piece and the clean lines throughout. After painting the body, I decided it needed one element of exposed wood. I sanded back the toe kick and gave it a very subtle whitewash. I love how it made the grain just pop! For this piece I used General Finishes Lamp Black and Alabaster for the wash. The entire piece is sealed with...
