Cabinet Finish

Just finished this built-in cabinet in a Mason Creme finish which is a off white base coat with a very subtle overall glaze and a detailed glaze in the profile areas. This built-in had more TLC than my paint job! The decorator had the cabinet maker add the 3 drawers at the bottom to make it taller, then dressed it up with additional trim to the ceiling. A real custom piece now! Can't wait to see the new hardware the decorator selects.

Kitchen "Before and After" Cabinet Re-Stain

This kitchen got quite the "overhaul". The original blue counter tops are now a beautiful granite. Cabinet finish was almost a natural oak stain which I Re-stained darker. Gave the island a new look with a coat of black. New hardware and new back splash and  like magic.... a new kitchen!! I also did the same Re-stain treatment on the original oak in the adjoining rooms' book cases and fireplace mantle. 



Work in progress! You can see the darker is the re-stain area and the lighter is the original

BOYS BEDROOM MURAL

This is a more graphic style mural than I usually paint. I do love the clean lines and the feel it gives the room. I painted the stripes first and then the football player. He's about 6 foot tall and painted in a pepper corn gray color.

Cute Bedroom!!

Headboard Wall


 
Another young girls bedroom done and ready to be decked out! This is a very large bedroom with 11 foot ceilings. Mom and daughter requested black for the ceiling and I jumped right in!! The two pink rectangle areas on both sides of the headboard accent art will have 3 mirrors on top of each other on both sides. The walls that surround the decorative areas are a metallic silver with glitter! Someday I hope to have the chance to see the room furnished!

AFTER
It's funny in this business of painting how I find myself usually painting over wood whether it be furniture or trim in a house. This project the client was ready for some wood. So here you go a before of the painted mantel and after pictures of the Faux Wood I painted. There are also 2 columns that were white and are now wood finish. I think the client made a good choice with this finish!
