to paint or not to paint….whatever makes the furniture suit you and your home!

Now this make-over I’m sure is controversial…this piece was already GORGEOUS!  The wood was in great shape and it was a stunning piece of furniture…but it didn’t match our client’s style.  So, with a new glossy turquoise finish it was perfect for her, and of course we LOVE it.  So keep in mind that even a piece that is already beautiful but just doesn’t fit with your style and your home can be given a makeover.

Here is another make-over…this one is not as hard on the wood purists.  A simple solid wood headboard gets pretty for a clients guestroom.

What it looked like when we first spotted it,

What it looks like now! You can really use your imagination. Just because there wasn’t existing upholstered panels, doesn’t mean that there can’t be!
