Ready for a new home

We're always being asked what we do, what does Next Act mean. This is a wonderful example of exactly what we do. Our answer is usually that "We breath life back into old, previously loved pieces of furniture and repurpose home decor". This is a wonderful example of just that.This dresser was obviously loved and enjoyed. It was still in good condition, just worn from years of use.

The first thing we do, is to remove all the hardware  These are wonderful pulls and in fantastic condition.

A little cleaning and they shine like new.

Two coats of paint and some gentle distressing. Put the finish on and reattached the hardware. My opinion... Absolutely wonderful. Becky M. is coming in on Saturday to pick it up. She was in and asked if we could paint it just like our front counter. We did, and now that we see it completed, it would have made a great accent piece behind the counter. I can't wait to see Becky's smile when she sees it. She was so excited that is was being custom done just for her.

 

 

I guess I'll have to keep my eye out for another chest or dresser of the same style. I love the simple lines and have a thing for that particular hardware. (that's why we aren't willing to sell our front counter)

Hope you liked our makeover. I think that answers the question, "What's Next Act?".  Because of a little TLC, this chest will now go on to it's "Next Act".

Still having fun... Patti
