| Furniture refinishing is just one more art form for me. I work on contemporary, as well as antique pieces. In order to do the best possible job, I will use oil based paints/stains on pieces that have high traffic, or were originally finished with oil based products. But for a more fun effect, acrylics can also be used. It's all in the prep. |
| This group of photos shows a piece about 100 yrs old which had a great deal of worm hole damage as well as a damaged claw foot. I restructured the wood, painted it to match the old wood and reattached the old claw foot. I also reattached several trim pieces which had come off. |
| This is a very old piece. The claw foot was damaged and had to be removed, the under side reinforced, repainted, and claw foot attached. |
| These are more examples of touch-ups and restorations. |
| With this restoration project I took the modern finish and turned it into an antique Ice Box look a like. |
| The stove hood was new and made to look antique to match the kitchen island. |
| Each of these pieces have had touch-ups to repair nicks and other damage. |

| This table had a white water mark form a wet towel. Not any more! |
| The bottom of this very old piece was completely worm hole ridden. It was necessary to reinforce it so that it was strong enough to receive the claw foot again. |
