Furniture Riot

Another simple and quick one-day upcycle on this desk. Sanded all the old marks and shine off, rubbed on some Danish oil, and added some blue accents. I was going to get some new handles for this one but I think the originals will do just fine 💙

A simple refurbish for this lovely desk! It was in reasonably good condition but there were marks on the top and some of the paint was starting to chip off. So I sanded it back to wood, applied Danish oil, and added new handles. Often when I'm working on a piece there are things that are trickier than I anticipated or it might be more damaged than I could initially see, but this was a straightforward one with no problems whatsoever, which is nice! It looks a little orange in the photos (fluorescent lighting is great for working but not so much for photos) but it's a lovely warm natural wood colour and I'm pleased with how it came out!

I got this mid century modern piece as it had good bones. I almost couldn't bear to look at it with the pinup cards glued on, but I'm finally getting around to stripping it and the wood underneath is GORGEOUS. This is going to be an incredible piece once the paint and pictures have been taken off 😂 I'm going to be keeping the original handles and legs on this one too as they are luckily in good condition and look great.

Dropped this piece to its new home yesterday - it sold within an hour of listing, which is always satisfying!

Finished this set of drawers that a lovely client gave me to do up! Love the mix of the soft green paint, the wood dowels, and the copper handles 😍
