Favorite Combo Custom Painted Antique Dresser

  A valued customer entrusted me with restoring an antique dresser she found online. It was in much rougher shape than advertised when she picked it up, but I believe I transformed it to match her vision. With its classic warm white finish and a darker stained top, it now has the timeless charm she envisioned.

Horse Mounting Block Project


My youngest daughter wanted a mounting block for our arena and was lucky enough to have wood and paint on hand to do just that.


First step was to build the mounting block out of deck boards that were pulled off my daughters deck when they built a new one. I love the fact that the wood was repurposed rather then being burnt or buried.


She wanted a turquoise color (hers and my favorite color) to paint it in. I pulled out my can of turquoise Rustoleum's Chalked ultra matte paint .
 

She painted a nice solid coat on with a Rustoleum chalked paint brush and let it dry.


To seal the chalk paint I sprayed on a few coats of Rustoleum's chalked protective topcoat. It is now ready for use, bring on the horses.
