Refinished Piano

 The before picture of this piano doesn't show how damaged and in need of repair it truly was.  The top of this piano had the finish worn off along with many scratches on the entire piano.  The left leg was broken and cracked in places.  For this piano I sanded it down, repaired damages, fixed the broken leg, and pulled it apart to refinish it.  After preparing the piano and taping off all the musical parts I lacquered, distressed, glazed, and clear coated it.  I don't feel the picture does it justice.  I did this to my own piano.

Exterior 1890's House Repaint.

Again I forgot a before picture.  This home had not been repainted in a while and required a lot of prep work as far as scraping off old paint and sanding things down to get them ready for repaint.  The finished product brought this old home back to it classic beauty.

Laundry Room Remodel

I forgot to take a before picture of this laundry room. Like most homes the entrance into their house from the garage is through the laundry room. The customer wanted a storage place for shoes, coats, hats, etc for their kids. I built a bench with three storage areas. We covered the back wall with bead board and added cabinets for more storage and functionality. Hooks were added on both walls for keys, coats, etc. I also put in their floor. The walls and cabinets were painted.

Mud Room Remodel

I had a customer want me to build a storage area in their mud room for shoes and other items. They also wanted to add hooks to hang coats. I built the frame and cabinet for shoes. Put up bead board and the hooks. Finished with paint.

Italian End Table

 This is a before an after of an antique.  I had a customer with this antique Italain end table.  She unfortunately used a cleaner on it that stripped the original finish off.  I hand glazed and painted the edges of this table to match and restore its original beauty.
