Restoration

July 20, 2010 by Bethany Sy

Excited to launch a new category to our creative portfolio, Nick has allowed me to scour craigslist for ridiculous cheap finds on old, solid wood pieces with great detail and tons of character. We then take said pieces of furniture and refinish them… to be more awesome than their previous selves.

I wanted to share my most recent project. (These are BEFORE pics obviously) We picked up this matching set of TV stand/coffee table thing and two coffee tables. I can’t wait till their done!!! Your on the edge of your seat, I know.

    Those look just like they came out of my mobile home some 30 years ago. I wonder if Nick has any memories of them. Bob
