Wowza! Is This the Greatest Piece of Furniture??

My little friend from my favorite thrift shop sent me a photo of this last week and asked if I was interested.  I said, "yes, but what exactly is it"? Hello? It's a bench!!  The best looking bench ever in the history of furniture making, that's what it is!!!

BEFORE

I custom mixed this dark "teal" shade and used a navy and turquoise to give the bench this finish.  If you look closely, you can see all the variation. 

I kept those amazing wood veneer doors but added a fresh coat of stain and poly.  Knobs by Anthropologie, obviously:-)

Now, if I could find pieces of furniture like this every week, I'd be in heaven!
This is available HERE on my Etsy shop, The Turquoise Iris.

Thanks and have a lovely day,

Vintage Red Buffet

This is a custom painted piece for The Lasley's.  They are currently building a new home and are hoping to add some color and charm to their new dining space.  This should do the trick.

 I am always searching for a way to add an artistic punch to my furniture pieces.  The peacock paper on the inside here adds an unexpected element and completes the "one of a kind" look I'm always after.

Hope everyone enjoys this little furniture makeover as much as I have!  

Linking up to Miss Mustard Seed this week for the Furniture Feature Friday!
