A lucky lady contacted me over on Facebook when she saw a glimpse of
my unfinished Paris Blue Night Stands
I dont often get sentimental or anything when my furniture leaves for its new home,
but these 2 pieces looked so amazing I did mourn the lose for a short time.
Yesterday I shared how to color your wax and promise
to show all the different elements that went into transforming these
homely little cabinets into beautiful bedroom pieces.
#1 Remember to take a real before picture.
(not one after you remove the hardware and start painting)
#2 Add new curvy front kick.
(cause your too lazy to fix the chipped and peeling veneer)
#3 Turn upside down and install legs.
(perfect time to remove cobwebs - customer wont pay extra for them)
#4 Paint some more before you finish.
(how else are you going to get those signature paint streaks in your hair)
#5 Glue the appliques to your drawer fronts.
(no one will ever suspect you pride them off a piece of furniture road side)
#6 Start waxing.
(cause you are still not finished)
#7 Install drawer handles and paint some more.
(who would have thought, the original ones worked best)
#8 Add another applique.
(cause you can)
#9 Build and install doors.
(dont take any photos of this step)
#10 Paint tops in white and wax to a high gloss.
(dont tell you wanted to make them look like marble but everything
was already taking so long and costing too much)
#11 Take pretty pictures.
(so you can reminisce later in life when you are too old to remember)
Coming soon ...
I will be addressing my obsession for bedside tables
with this next set seen below.
There is a sneak peak over at Facebook if you cant wait!
In other news a new batch of Georges candles have made their way to
The Passionate Home. Be sure to get yours before they sell out again.
TPH is in the picturesque courtyard of downtown Langley at 20506 Fraser Hwy.
