Our blue mahogany dresser sold immediately. We moved a couple pieces of furniture in the store that first day. Cathy and I were literally crawling around on our hands and knees building a wall of doors for a backdrop. I had a drill in one hand and a screw between my teeth when I noticed a nice young gal and her mom peeking over me. She said, “I think this dresser will match my comforter”, and sure enough… it did. When we brought our next load in the following day, it was wearing a big ole’ sold tag – yeah!
We brought several more pieces in to replace the ones that sold. The owner is great about letting us know when large pieces sell so we can keep our space looking top notch.
I’m really excited how this Antique Chest of Drawers turned out; so much personality! Just check out the details; I really enjoyed doing this transformation. I have this thing about finishing some parts of a piece with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint then contrasting other parts with stain & glaze.
We have a neat rustic chest with that farmhouse chic look that would make a fabulous buffet in someone’s dining room. It offers a ton of storage.
Diana shot this AWESOME picture for me. Of course we had to lug it into the backyard to get the right backdrop – lol. Thanx Diana – you rock!
I experienced months of reoccurring respiratory problems starting as soon as the weather got cold here and I had to start working within my workshop. Even with my exhaust system, I was advised to remove all the chemical hazards from my environment and find another line of work or find green products to work with in an effort to get well.
I replaced toxic, hand burning, chemical strippers with citrus based strippers (which work better anyway), pulled chemical laden paints, waxes, glues… and started searching for better products.
It was during that search that I discovered CeCe Caldwell’s all natural, eco-friendly chalk and clay based mineral paints. It’s 100% Naturally Green ~ wahoo!! and I was geeked to find out that it’s owned and operated right here in the USA.
From the first time I tried CeCe Caldwell’s paint and wax, I fell in love. I know that sounds so dramatic, but after everything I went through, It was a God send. This line is so much easier for me to work with; it’s so different than any other paint I’ve ever used.
For my style of painting, I can achieve a much more superior finish and can create it much faster eliminating the stress of working so hard to achieve something that’s easy with a chalk and clay mixture.
I have so much faith in CeCe Caldwell’s line that I became an Authorized Retailer for them. I carry a complete line of CeCe Caldwell’s Paints, Clear Wax, Aging Cream, Satin finish, brushes, color charts… locally at our Shizzle Design space within Not So Shabby Antiques and Fine Furniture in Holland, Michigan here as well as online on our Online Shizzle Shop here.
