Refinishing for Christmas

Take an old desk that is well built &

Turn it Black with  a Super-Glaze top

A lot of wet sanding makes it shine

A desk made in the early 1800s can be a challenge

Both back legs were rebuilt


A very functional piece of furniture


The old Danish table is now distressed black

The base was rebuilt



A 1910 Duncan-Fife is best done as original.


With five leaves it is 90"long


The queen -size wicker just needed redesigned


The Cannon style just needed a face lift


This table needed all three legs
