Desk Makeover

One item of furniture that I get loads of requests for would have to be office desks. A desk depending on your required size should always be deep enough to accommodate your computer, printer and of course all your stationary. At least one drawer or many drawers to hold all your paperwork. 

This is a great shaped desk with lots of curves. 

A vintage dressform I picked up last week, boy are these getting hard to find. This one definetly got my heart racing. 

A gorgeous crown sitting on top of an old chippy pigeon hole crate. 

This desk has sold already and is off to its new home today. 

My latest fan.

Sweet Dresser Makeover

This piece I made over for my sister. It has been sitting in her bedroom all dark and unnoticed for months. Painted white and lots of sanding to bring the timber through. I think she is going to love the new look.

Vintage rustic bird cage. 

Gorgeous curved front and the original handle was put back on. 

The kids and I have gone away up north for a few days decided to make the most of the last week of the school holidays.

Sofa Table

Lovely white sofa table, long lovely legs ideal for desk or storing some nice baskets underneath.

Available now at Paint Me White - Woolloongabba Antique Centre.

I have a matching pair of these lovely french style chairs I have left them as is for now and they are also available at Paint Me White. 

Bench Seat

The weather is so hot here today that I have snuck inside to cool down in the airconditioning. I wanted to show you this awesome bench seat I have just finished. Not only does the cross back timber look stylish but the piece is also very functional. 

Storage and plenty of it. Would be handy to have this piece at your Entry or in your hallway. Hide away all those shoes, boots and even big enough for hats, skateboards or magazines. 

This mirror is my favorite find of the week, I just love it.

Country or Beachy Wardrobe

I would describe this wardrobe as Beachy or Country as I could see it in either styles of decorating.  Sometimes when you buy pieces to make over you have to sleep on it for a few nights until you can decide on the look your wanting to achieve. This was not the case with this piece. As soon as I saw it I knew exactly how it would end up looking and thankfully this is it. 

Painted white panels are lots of sanding so the timber pops through. 

Forgot to take a photo of the inside but it has hanging on the left and heaps of drawers of the right, a very functional piece.  

A new lamp shade I re-covered. 

Round crystal knobs to replace the old metal pulls. 

These candle holders have the perfect amount of rust on them. 

Would suit any part of the home, could be used in the bedroom, laundry, kitchen or even holding all your crafts.
