I figured instead of jamming up the weekend threads I would just start this thread. Suggestions, colors, options and any feedback positive or not accepted.
First project was the spare bedroom
Bed, dresser and night stand
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171019/96056c4b5f03583e2ff8a57f5e9ed73b.jpg
Second was an old armoire into a bookcase

Today was a fun day. Went shopping yesterday with my best friend who has no sense of value or saving a buck. We went to a boutique and she was going to by an entry way table for 300 bucks. I convinced her to go to Homegooda, we found a great table that was dinged and they gave us an additional 30% off. I went over today with paint and supplies I already had and she has a great table for 67 bucks. It started like this
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171023/894c391091f482e2be019b6d6590d32c.jpg the topnis the color the whole thing was and now looks like this in her house
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171023/8e8e9a3abc96a386be6845f7cebc0425.jpg
I was envious, and had bought a new painted saying for my living room
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171023/3f67e47efa3518a31c1fc83071ef0e03.jpg
But didn’t like the table.. so back out to my garage and now I have started this

Don't give up on him. He's too cute. It most likely is from when he was a pup. He may have very well had to fight with others to get food. We have a pup that went through a house fire while caged. He
is very timid and spooks easily, but is adopting well. He is glued to my wife for security. Certain noises like a vacuum scare the living hell out of him. We have to be careful. Eli is registered and pure
bred. It happened when he was very young. Helix will be fine. It takes time.

Most definitely from his earlier years. I am sure he fought for food, and probably about everything. With Caleb, our first Pekingese, we used to mess with him telling him we were going to get his treats or food. It made him very protective. Lesson learned on our part. With Gage we made sure not to make that mistake. We can rub him while he is eating, and he doesn't even seem to know we are there.
Helix may never grow out of it fully. He may get a little less protective, but if it happened in his informative years it may be harder to break 100%. Just keep on loving that little boy.

Wouldn’t even think of giving up on him. I had a behavioral therapist out and she thinks he was a puppy mill dog. He will let me offer him other food and we are showing him that he will always have his food at scheduled times. I feed him in the kennel if someone is here, so I can close the door if he gets possessive. He did bite me one day on the foot when I was trying to push him away from the neighbors dogs food.! He would never let anyone near me or hurt me, he is a great guard dog.

That zeus, I just need to be really careful with him and protect the Little’s when they come over. They love him and he is doing much better with toys, less hoarding and more spreading all over the house. He hates the lawn mower and weed racket, even if they are t on. So he is always inside until those chores are done. Then he hangs out while I dead head, weed, or paint in the garage.

Haven’t updated this page in a while. Moved a bunch of things into the basement to work on in the winter months. Was given a dresser and nightstand so I am painting and freshening it up for oldest sons girlfriend. Dave finished the one large piece and will be listing it on Craig’s list. I have completed the painting, waxing and polyurethane spraying of the trees, three sets are sold, 2 left to sell. After Biloxi I need to get cracking as I have a few pieces in my garage I want to move inside. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/2390e3e23db3a35901af0ac0cb410b31.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/cb762c88fa19047f605c63c9ff8960da.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171206/b16e36085723b059e909cecb7defac04.jpg

Resurrecting this page. The shop I work at is in need of some new stuff. So I am learning a whole new side of this. I am using a sprayer and a spray booth. Found some great tables and chairs on Facebook market place.. for a steal.
So these are my projects .. I will update as they come along and I have a place to sell them.
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/022192221fef1610501a7f9887b3d6e9.jpg
Got these 4 for 25.. they will go with this table

Then these chairs
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/dae4c59f9eefaf70864188ea84049e74.jpg
6 of them will go with this table

Chairs painted
Table stripped
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/f1334d97689caa014addfdeb82c7c1ff.jpg
And this set with 6 chairs
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190621/b0e84e0a0be80cfc6833ed6a219e9145.jpg
I will share all the after photos with you. But selling in the shop will be a nice way to supplement my gambling fund, and get a tax write off for my vehicle and storage in my garage. Plus my office space when I search for items to purchase.
Wish me luck

They are listed for $598. We are pretty consistent based on number of chairs and number of leafs.
My big one I have to work on is going to be $798. It will seat 12 when the two leaves are in.. old farmhouse table. Will use a bench on one side and 6 chairs, 4 regular and two captains.

Okay, so you had the pads, just needed to recover. Reason I'm asking is, I'm a "picture straightener," and any little bit of crooked stuff will make me twitch. LOL I was looking at the pattern on those seats and thinking how perfect they were. You pay very close attention to detail. Great work.

OMG; I have had this piece!! When DH was in the military in the late 70's early 80's, we lived on Post and at that time you could go to the housing supply and get "loaner" furniture to stock your house (for every room) and at the end of your tour you could purchase it. At the time DH and I thought that the furniture was too big and clunky for us so we weren't interested - we were dumb. That stuff is worth it's weight in gold, it lasts forever and the wood grain is beautiful and long lasting.

LowAndSlow that table and chairs set was a long slow process. Started stripping it last week. Then sanded, then stained and it had multiple coats of poly. The legs were not bad to paint , nor was the apron. The chairs were awful.. and took so much time. 3.5 hours on 3.5 chairs. Shop owner Lacy finished the chairs yesterday and moved it
The Buffett I stripped at home before moving to the shop. Painted last night. Sanded and stained the top, and we tried Poly in the spray gun yesterday and that worked well.
I get off early today.. so going to start tackling this stuff

Well, in my world, that's lightning quick (and believe me, I am in awe at how you can do it). I have a set of chairs in my basement that are similar, maybe just a tiny bit more ornate, and they are heavy. I bought them at a yard sale last year thinking I would do something spiffy like you're doing. Haha; they are still in the basement, untouched, and I just look at them and get overwhelmed. I will probably give them away or sell them for what I paid. In a way, I'm kind of happy to hear you say those chairs were a lot of work because the more I looked at mine, that's exactly what I was thinking.

Thank you so much. The shop has been struggling and Lacy needed some good inventory... and I lucked into a time when people need what I have. Have 5 pieces on the floor, 3 table sets and two buffet. Picking up the 2nd dresser in a two dresser set. Along with 2 book cases and an 11 drawer dresser. That will be my goal to get those done this week. Have stripper on a table, bit right. Ow we have 9 sets on the floor. So until one sells.. not a rush.

Thanks sondor. It is all stages, I always have something that has stripper and is ready to be scraped, always shopping Facebook Garage sales for the next item. Lacy helps finish up stuff.. she was spraying today.. and it was so humid and was under the smoke sensor... so we had visitors.

We have fans on to dry the stain.. the paint itself drys very quickly. We normally don’t poly until we get it into the shop. The ac makes it easier for it to dry there.

Well, I have to say you did it. When you bought these cabinets I thought that they were about the ugliest pieces of furniture ever. You really turned them in to nice pieces. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190724/7bef5da39520193384aa1f2108188083.jpg

I wondered the same thing about the filigree in the door. My son found one of these pieces a few years ago, gave it to my neighbor (she and her sister do this work too) to do whatever she wanted with it. It was in such bad shape that she decided she wouldn't sell it, but she worked on it when she had time. She ended up doing it in all white except for the inside back wall was sort of an old fashioned small flower wallpaper. She calls the piece, "Grandma," and she has it in an all-white spare bedroom she redid in her house. It is precious.

I wondered the same thing about the filigree in the door. My son found one of these pieces a few years ago, gave it to my neighbor (she and her sister do this work too) to do whatever she wanted with it. It was in such bad shape that she decided she wouldn't sell it, but she worked on it when she had time. She ended up doing it in all white except for the inside back wall was sort of an old fashioned small flower wallpaper. She calls the piece, "Grandma," and she has it in an all-white spare bedroom she redid in her house. It is precious.
It should go on the floor today.. Lacy will finish it up this afternoon. I will post photos as soon as she does.. such a unique piece..

Yesterday I bought (on Facebook Marketplace) a Queen. A long nine drawer, a tall 9 drawer and two night stands... 100 bucks.
Will be hitting the ground running this week. Have 3 table sets we need to do.

Reality of this side job.. those chairs I went and picked can be recovered.. it is a true reupholstery process and Lacy and I don’t do that. Hope I can sell them and at least get my money back

Today I did labor.. but loaded up the shop with some really beautiful stuff.
The big ass table I am working on is done. 72 inches.. plus two 18 inch leafs and 8 chairs.
The backs of the chairs are stained to match the table top.

Yep.. I am working on one now, not quite as big, but will have 5 chairs and a bench. Picked up two night stands on my lunch hour. Lacy and I are picking up a table and 6 chairs at 5. Not working in the shop tonight.. need to mow my grass.
Next projects

I was going to say the same thing. First I thought it was a low chest with a pull-out shelf but that didn't make sense so realized it was a nightstand. I bet that one is going to look awesome when done.

I have two.. as Lacy says we don’t do 0ne Night StAnds. Haha
Still traveling around in my car. Didn’t go to the shop last night.. so tonight I will work on them. White is our most popular color for night stands. I wish my Beautiful turquoise ones would sell :)

Not always, found a queen bed set.. and they were asking 450.. I offered 300.. and it only had one night stand..(I have a lonely match in the shop) Now another lady is looking for a king bed.. the search continues.
FYI.. matching nightstands are like gold.. hard to find and expensive..
