Up until the surprise pregnancy with baby #3, I worked for Creative Cabinets & Faux Finishes, learning to prep, paint, and glaze cabinets. I've taken that knowledge and training and used it to transform beat-up furniture finds into beautiful pieces. Now that people are asking me to paint for them, I thought making an online medium for my work would be a great way to "advertise".

Antique Headboard and Footboard
I found this at a yard sale. What could have been a beautiful piece of furniture was ruined by a horrible lacquer job. It was lumpy and streaked. I sanded out the major imperfections and painted then distressed it. I planned on putting a dark brown glaze on top of the paint to catch the "imperfections" under the paint, but I was so pleased with the paint/distress job, that I decided to leave it as is.
