An adorable red bench !

This beautiful bench, originally was a brown boring bench from a breakfast nook set. After some serious sanding and replacing the hardware, it became a jewel to our store. It was made in a shabby chic style with distressed edges. I added some roses on the back panels to make it more glamorous. It sold fast and now it decorates a beautiful house in Idyllwild, CA.

roses painting  detail, and on the right side you can see the original stamp of the company that made the bench back in 1950's

The brown color inside was the original color of the whole thing.  I found it to be in a nice contrast with the red

1920's dining set! Like new!

Hi all! 

 

This is the awesome 1920's dining table we have at the store! The design I did on the surface matches the new upholstery.

the table in the store

 

but.. The table was not in the best condition when it arrived to our hands.. Was like this : 

 

 

 

 

chairs in original condition. preety bad huh?

the plain surface of the table, in bad condition as well..

 

 

 

 

We stripped down the table and chairs from all colors and removed the old upholstery. Then we found this beautiful fabric for the chairs.

 

I used all natural dyes to give to the wood this beautiful walnut color, and then painted on the surface this original design that we wanted to match the chairs. After several layers of good varnish the table was ready.
