What was once T&G flooring in a 1830’s farmhouse, has now become a unique record stand. This beautiful piece is made from quartersawn and riftsawn white oak flooring that the T&G were removed to creat custom panels.The panels were then cut to final length and assembled using dowel joinery to create a strong and unique joint. I cannot wait to see when all of the records are in it and the player/ speaker are playing some good tunes!...
"What a crazy adventure this was ! Initially, we were contracted to only paint the white & paint the brown railings black.
Once the brown upholstered carpet was removed, we discovered that the stairs were painted and the risers were covered in adhesive. Being the curios type I am, I uncovered the bottom tread, partial riser & partial post and it was revealed that there is some gorgeous wood under all of that!
I really pushed to stain the risers and treads. Initially they were...
This modem farmhouse buffet is the perfect statement piece with deep blue shade! Multiple washes with dye stain and paint created so much depth and dimension, it looks different depending on the light.
I used General Finishes dye in blue and Milk paint in China Blue which is a beautiful true navy.

"I’m slowly coming around to black. Someone once told me that interior designers say that every room should have some black in it. Which is interesting to me because I always think every room should have some pink in it. Soooo, clearly I’m no interior designer. But I digress… This Empire style beauty was painted in General Finishes Lamp Black with delicate distressing. Then, two coats of GF High Performance Topcoat in Gloss toned with GF’s water based Ebony stain for more depth. And a final...

Good to use some UK companies as well. 1 piece swamp ash body from GuitarbuildUK, bridge from Grainger Guitars and Silo pickups from Bare Knuckle Pickups. I stained and finished the body.

4 parts High Performance Topcoat to one part Ebony Dye Stain
The rowing machine was finished using General Finishes Dye Stain and High Performance Topcoat. All finishes were applied to premium Baltic plywood. The rower has two main finsihed parts; the outer frame and the inner frame. The first step was to raise the grain with a water spritz then sand with 220-320-grit sandpaper to know down the "hairs". A Custom formula of Cabernet and Amber Dye Stain was mixed to achieve the rich, reddish color for the outer frame. General Finishes Enduro Extender...
"This is such a great, solid wood piece of furniture! The top was sanded and stained with General Finishes Medium Brown Dye Stain and sealed with Arm-R-Seal Semi-Gloss. There are still a few imperfections that were too deep to get out, but overall I'm pleased with the results! The body was painted with Fusion Mineral Paint Coal Black & lightly distressed. The inside has some dark stains, so I added Re·design with Prima Timeworks Decoupage Paper, which gives it the right vintage vibe." -...

"A modern update to a dated piece! This piece is solid cherry wood. I wasn’t a fan of the shell design in the trim so I removed the entire base and built out a new one. Added some modern feet to bring it back to a decent height.
I went way over budget with the new hardware but I think it was well worth it! Body is General Finishes Alabaster, the perfect shade of white. I added a raised stencil to the top row of drawers.
Top was stripped and sanded and finished in General Finishes Dye...

"I’m so in love with this timeless Webster Groves staircase! Such a classic beauty.
The railings & posts were never clear coated from the previous contractor so they were really dull and faded. The treads were failing big time and I suspect the proper floor rated clear coat was not used to protect them.
We completely refinished all the oaks treads, cleaned the railings and posts and I dyed everything with a custom blend of General Finishes Dye Stains using Light Brown, Medium...
