Grey and Wood Antique Buffet

Before:
After:

Grand Grey Distressed Antique Wooden Buffet on Caster Wheels. This piece has such hidden charm from the mini mirror on the top back to the long low top drawer, french legs, remnants of exquisite trim, and even an optional resurfaced wooden silverware organizer that can be removed if necessary. I stripped her down and painted a grey milk paint wash over her, and distressed her back down for a well loved and worn look. the natural dark wood compliments the subtle grey in such an elegant color palette. Most of the hardware is original and cleaned up a bit to show through some silver hints, so I chose 2 silver wired knobs for the 2 cabinet doors. Two of the middle drawers are lined with an muted yellow regal animal paper. 

Dimensions are as follows:

5 feet wide
4 feet tall with mirror, (40 inches tall without the mirror attached.)
22 inches deep

Grey and Mint Dresser turned Vessel Sink









Just recently sold this gem to a family in Silverthorn Colorado who were taking the leap and turning an old dresser into a vessel sink vanity. I'd be ever so eager to see the cozy little mountain bathroom she ended up in and the little hands that might tidy up before dinner at her frame. I loved the mint glass geometrically shaped knobs fort he bottom two drawer. I had to keep the top two with her original knobs as a little relic of the past always keeps us grounded.  She had the loveliest of trims and added embellishments.

Bebe Changing Station






















This was a custom piece done for some friends expecting twins in the next 2 months! It will be the changing table once the additional little padding accompanies the top! I believe this was an old family dresser and I can assuredly tell you she has seen layers upon layers of different season all with a different little coat.  She required an extra dose of patience and an additional tub of stripper.  But I quite love that simple grey milk paint wash and the subtle details that keep it still somewhat masculine for those 2 new beaus! Welcome to the world little ones.  Change is inevitable, embrace it as it comes ;)
