The Bodey Dresser Set - Before & After

BeforeThis is a 1976 Thomasville four piece dresser set we picked up a few months back. We recognized all of the lovely curved and contours from the get go and was excited to finally get to work on the set. After We opted for black in color because the pieces were more elegant than vintage. The door on the nine drawer dresser is contoured and provides another level of dimension to the piece. You can see at the base of the dresser the different levels of details. The drawers also have several levels of detail which highlight the new oil rubbed bronze pulls we used to enhance the beauty of the set and give it a bit of an update. I have been wanting to use these pulls for some time now and I think they work wonderfully on this set. Before After This four drawer tall dresser is where you can really identify the beauty of the rounded posts on each end.



The distressing really highlights all of the detail on the drawers and at the base of the dresser.
I neglected to get a before photo of this little nightstand but here is the after.


I imagine this set in a master bedroom or a guest room. Black is so versatile and splashes of color can change the look and feel of the room throughout the year.
Yes indeed, I plan to use the knobs and pulls on more pieces. They are functional and simple. There are so many elements happening on these pieces and we wanted something that blended in nicely so as not to take away from the overall design. I have to say these did the trick. Before
After
I cannot tell you how tempted I have been just to keep this mirror for myself. It is quite large and would work beautifully in an entry way or leaning on a side table or above a bathroom sink. The curves at the top along with the wood embellishment are brilliant.
I am off to tape a fun segment with Studio 5 this morning. We have a fresh blanket of snow on the ground and the air is crisp and cold. We are looking forward to the weekend and finishing up some furniture projects. We are working on an old Thomasville hutch and a buffet that we plan to finish in a white - with perhaps a splash of grey here and there. I cannot wait to see how it all works out!


Happy Friday!

The Amiyah Hutch - Before & After

BeforeThis is a 1967 Thomasville hutch we found and we are sure happy that we did. It has many straight lines and clean cuts. It has a strong chunky base with four doors instead of the typical three. The top has four doors which is a bit unusual as well.

After
We painted it in my favorite vintage white and lightly distressed it.
We added new oil rubbed bronze hardware which is my favorite on our vintage white. And this is a new style that I found recently and I am swooning over the bowed pulls with the round end caps.
The majority of the hutches that we have refinished either have two doors that open on the sides or one in the middle which causes alot of reaching around. This hutch has four doors with three separate compartments. The two middle doors open to one section and the side doors have separate compartments.
The bottom section has some nice wood detailing. Behind the doors on the left are three drawers which is a nice organizing feature. Behind the doors on the right is one shelf.
The two middle doors are contoured and sit slightly in front of the two side doors.
I would be lying if I said I didnt try to figure to put this hutch in our master bedroom. One day soon I will have the perfect hutch in our bedroom. Frankly I would be fine having some type of hutch in each and every bedroom. I think they are a great way to stay organized and have extra storage.
Up next is an old Thomasville buffet that we have converted to a tv stand. It is a beauty and and has helped with a transformation I have been wanting to complete for some time.

Monday is right around the corner and the day I start my new job. It was a rough farewell for me yesterday as I parted ways with friends and co-workers. The change I have feared is upon me and actually already happening. But it is good. It is a blessing.

The Peterson Dresser Set - Custom Refinish Before & After

Before The Petersons brought us these lovely Thomasville french provencial dresser and nightstand set to be painted in our classic black. They wanted some light distressing with the original hardware put back on for obvious reasons - they are gorgeous!

After
With the light distressing the gold and yellow pop through so nicely and really compliment the original hardware. My advice on these types of dressers is to always stay with the curvy frenchy pulls. I cannot think of a hardware switch out that would work better than these. One unique feature on this set is the slight division between the top three drawers and the bottom three drawers. The top ones are slightly set back and divided by some curvy wood detailing. This is called a chest on chest. Thanks Ann Marie!
This feature along with the curvy drawer fronts gives it so much dimension and depth.
And then there are the sweet little legs! Everyone knows how much I love dressers sitting up on these kinds of legs with the detailed wood molding at the base.
Beautiful.
Classy.
Elegant.

Next up I followed another tutorial out there in blogland and finished up one more wreath. Plus our next furniture project is going to be a d000-zeeee!
