Vintage Art Deco China Cabinet Restore

This Art Deco waterfall china cabinet, circa 1940, had seen better days. Tucked away in a shop and used as a storage shelf, it was in rough shape. A family member, inspired by a photo featuring rich navy tones and warm wood, wanted to see it brought back to life. With that vision in mind, I gave the piece the repairs and makeover it deserved — blending classic navy with warm wood to honor both its history and a fresh new style.

Farmhouse Jewelry Hooks



When I purchased this solid oak wall hook bar I totally envisioned it as a jewelry or scarf storage and display piece. I had a customer wanting an accordion type wall hook variety but when I sent her this one she was "hooked" :)

She has had me do many pieces in white to add to her farmhouse style look. Like this sofa table, this old family desk, a sentimental family secretary desk, and this sweet little accent table.


After it was cleaned well, 3 coats of Fusion Mineral Paint raw silk. Once all coats were dry it was lightly sponge sanded and distressed for a farmhouse feel.

For a seamless look, I also spray painted 2 wall screw heads white with metal paint then painted the raw silk.


It will look lovely in her home and be the perfect spot to coral all her necklaces in style!
