Before & After { Parker }

Before and after ....

{ Parker } $315

  { Parker } has been brought back to life!  The base has been finished in a warm mocha brown. Literally like a frappuccino from Starbucks! The carved detailed drawers were done in a creamy off white and distressed to perfection to show all the details.  Then the drawers were glazed with the base color to tie the piece together.  And of course it has it's jewelry...chunky, vintage, substantial oil rubbed bronze hardware.

  The glazing really gives this piece uniqueness.  It brings warmth to the piece and adds a classic, elegant feel.  This versatile piece is ideal for a dresser, flat screen TV stand, a buffet to store table linens and plates, or an entry piece to show off to all your friends as they walk in;)  What I love about this piece is it is classic, elegant and neutral but at the same time it makes a statement.  It will draw every one's eyes to it and will fit with nearly any color scheme.

Here is the before...grungy, neglected and desperate!

{ Before & After }

{ Before & After } Large Dresser

  A new (and so sweet!) client of mine brought me this beautiful dresser with great shape, great detail and strong bones.  It lacked some major personality and....Reduniture style!

 Shellie and I discussed what to do with this piece for about 45 minutes and then finally came up with it!  We went back and forth on going all white or white with a wood top...blah blah blah.  So I suggested doing Reduniture's Signature Aged-Wood Technique and then off-setting it with a clean white base and subtle distressing.  - I like doing subtle distressing just around the moldings, corners and detailing to make them stand out.

Now for the good stuff....The top of this fab dresser was finished with Reduniture's Signature Aged-Wood Technique with a totally custom stain!!  Shellie wanted some gray in the wood tone but not all gray and not all brown, but enough....So I took this challenge on and used a combination of stains to get the perfect mix.  Now, you may not be able to see it in the pictures but the top has the perfect blend of grays and browns. 

  Not too much gray but the perfect blend of grayish-browns and different shades of brown.  This piece really came to life after its Reduniture makeover.  It feels full of character, style and warmth.  It is a classic piece that is versatile in nearly any color palette.

  I decided to go a bit more modern on this large dresser but still keeping that Reduniture style.  I finished this piece in a crisp white then added the dark gray double pin stripe detailing.  It's clean and fresh yet still has that vintage kinda feel. 

  This piece has a large storage area in the middle so I had to through in my pop color.  I chose a jewel-toned turquoise to add some more character to this piece.  If your were to use this piece as a buffet, it would be ideal for storing large bowls and platters in there.  If you were to use this as a TV stand, you could add some baskets to hold your DVDs or blankets.  If used as a dresser, you could store your winter clothes or summer clothes in there with or without baskets......just endless I tell ya'!

  Here's what the piece looked like before...in really good shape, HEAVY, and chunky true vintage hardware.  It just lacked personality....and Reduniture style;)
