The chair with a story .....

A repeat customer asked if we would take a student chair that was from a Univeristy of Georgia classroom. Come to find out several of their family members had gone to UGA , and in fact here mother and father meet while students there. 

Now I don't like to say something was ugly, but over the years someone had painted this whole chair a horrible green, and we had to strip it all the way down to raw wood.

Above is our vision with the UGA logo on the seat and the faux initials of the customers mother and father on the writing desk top. The legs are painted UGA colors and the upright spindles. It has been brought back to live in a place of honor instead of in the corner in the garage.

Table Transformation

Table transformation from drab to fab 

We were contacted by the Seeger family, about reviving their dinning room table. After several conversations, we decided that they shared our vision and we agreed to take on the project 


The dinning set was in great shape solid wood (with 3 leaves "surprise"), but they wanted it to have a more dramatic flare. 1st step was to take everything apart and remove the original finish and stain with the sander (no chemicals used).

The base and chair spindles and legs were all painted 3 coats antique white, then sanded smooth to remove all brush strokes, and given a light distress. 

   We added a custom graphic to the top via heat transfer and added the darker stain and multi coat poly urethane finish.  


The finished product turned out great 


and was delivered in time for Christmas festivities.
