It is ridiculously cold again. Ugh! I am ready to migrate farther South. My productivity depends on the weather and not being able to get as much done as I would like, is irritating. Plus, I like being outside, working on pieces in the driveway and be able to open the shop up but I can't do that with these ridiculous temperatures and north wind. Yikes. This really has been one of the coldest winters I can remember. It hasn't let up and I think I might be going crazy from it, Is that possible? Going crazy from cold weather?
Even with the bad weather the past few weeks, I was able to stay on schedule with the next project. A beautiful Ethan Allen dresser and end tables were brought to me for a face lift. The pieces were in great condition and were pretty as is, but looked a little dated. The client wanted them refinished to look like my grandmother's dresser that I use as a buffet. These were perfect for this type of transformation. The dresser and end tables have beautiful details and edges for the glaze to highlight. I love this makeover.

They are so pretty! Next up on my schedule is a Duncan Phyfe buffet. The client and I have been looking for this piece for months and she finally found one. I can't wait to get started on it's makeover.
Sorry for the lack of blog posts but the cold and rain hurts my productivity. I have been working on a few inside projects but I am not ready to show them to y'all. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
