Black Distressed Bookshelf

I just finished this charming bookshelf. It has been painted black and distressed to show some red tones and the natural wood. It has also been protected for everyday use. This shelf would be perfect for books or for electronics under a wall mounted flat screen TV.
The bookshelf measures: 46"x11.5"x37" (l,d,h)

Only $110.

Black Antique Washstand Dresser

This dresser required a major overhaul. It was a beautiful antique washstand dresser covered in bird's eye maple veneer that had severe damage to the top surface's veneer. I decided to remove the destroyed layer of veneer and replace it with a more affordable wood when I found out that a sheet of maple veneer was $350! I painted the dresser a classy black and added amber glass knobs with brass accents to match the antique skeleton key holes. I love this piece! It would look great in any room in the house.
The dresser measures: 40"x22"x27" (l,d,h).

Only $200.

Best Bet Carpet Systems

I know this has nothing to do with furniture; however, I wanted to recommend Best Bet Carpet Systems in the Salt Lake City area. I had Joe stop by a few weeks ago to clean our traffic areas and he did such a wonderful job. Not only did my carpet look brand new, but he managed to get my paint stains out of the carpet! That's right - I had stepped in black paint back in May (working on a dresser) and thought it would never come out. Joe explained to me that I should never use store-bought carpet cleaner and that I should use his pH balanced carpet cleaner (I had wrecked our carpet with the store bought stuff). I sort of thought he was just trying to sell me something and dismissed his comments but a few days later I found that he had dropped off a new bottle of cleaner on my front porch. You should really give this guy a call if you need to have a problem spot removed. He is extremely friendly and does amazing work.

Black Distressed Dresser - Not For Sale

I visited my husband's family this weekend and his mother asked me to redo a dresser for her. This dresser had been painted at least three different times and was also used as my husband's baby changing table years ago. I loved getting the chance to work on such a special piece. His mom wanted a black dresser distressed with a hint of clay showing through. She also chose the absolute perfect knobs to go with her two color choices. Time did not allow for us to put a protective layer on it, but they will be doing that next week. Once the protection is applied, the areas that were distressed regain the satin finish of the surrounding unaltered areas. We had a wonderful time working on this piece and we think it turned out great!

~Not for sale.

Secretary Dresser - Not For Sale

I have completely redone this dated 70's secretary dresser and turned it into a classy piece for a client. This dresser has been painted black and all the pulls have been replaced from shiny brass to lovely antique brass. I also added an antique brass drop knob on the drop down shelf. This will definitely make a beautiful and functional addition to my clients' entryway!







Wow! It has been almost two months since my last post. The holiday season was busy for personal reasons, but I am back from a trip overseas and have a few things I will be working on over the next month. I am almost finished with an antique washstand dresser and it is looking great! I will be working on a unique bookshelf and a dining room set over the next month. I am sure it gets frustrating to see furniture that is not for sale, but I want you to see examples of my work that isn't put up for sale. Also, if you have anything that you would like redone then please feel free to email me. Happy New Year!

Black Dining Room Set - Not For Sale

I recently finished this dining room for a very eager client [myself]. This was definitely one of my most challenging projects but I think it turned out amazing! I was thrilled to discover that this piece was sold somewhere between 1916-1940. As I was removing the re-upholstery, I found beautiful black leather seat cushions in perfect condition. Let me just say the client was very pleased! :o)

Not for sale.





The holiday season will definitely be light at B's Refurnishings; however, I will be working on finishing a dresser/desk and possibly another dining room set before the end of the year. I also have the Roll Top Desk and the German Rocking/Glider Horse available. Please let me know if you have any questions. Happy Thanksgiving!

Contemporary Dresser

Here is a sleek contemporary style dresser that I have painted in a beautiful "smoky pitch". It has clean lines and new brushed nickel knobs and long brushed nickel handles. This dresser is made of solid wood and has a total of six drawers.
This piece measures 51.5"x19.5"x32.5" (l,d,h).
**A few people have inquired about this piece thinking that it was brown. This piece is actually a beautiful, smoky blue/gray. If you click on the pictures it will be easier to see the true color.

Only $175. (SOLD)

Work Table - Commissioned

The same person who requested the antique writing desk in teal also asked that I create a work table to match. I found this unique, vintage kitchen table that was the exact size she requested. We both fell in love with the shape and the funky metal legs. I added the amber knob to match the antique writing desk. I think it turned out great!

~SOLD

Distressed Roll Top Desk

I love this roll top desk! This desk has been painted white, distressed, and protected. I have replaced the dated knobs with brushed bronze knobs/pulls. The bottom two drawers have faux antique card catalog pulls which have slots for labels. Inside the roll top are three small shelves to store envelopes, office supplies, etc. and a nice desktop for your work.
This piece measures 41"x19"x43.5" (l,d,h).

Only $280. (SOLD)

Unique Storage/Accent Chest, II

Here is another vintage LP record storage cabinet. I painted this piece black and added polycrylic for protection. The dated knobs have been replaced with gorgeous leaf knobs. This accent chest not only looks great but is very functional for storage. It is a perfect fit for smaller entries or tucking at the end of a hall. Just like the last cabinet I did, I am having a hard time posting this because it works perfectly beside my front door!
The accent chest measures 36"x16"x30" (l,d,h).

Only $150. (SOLD)

Round Pedestal Coffee Table

Check out this antique Duncan Phyfe mahogany coffee table by Mersman. It has been painted black with several coats of poly for protection. The table rests on four splayed legs with beautiful gold feet. This coffee table measures 35.5" in diameter x 15.5" in height. I haven't finished the vintage LP cabinet; however, it would look great with this coffee table! (Check back at the beginning of next week for the cabinet)

Only $85. (SOLD)

Coming Soon!

Over the next month I will be working on a variety of pieces including a vintage LP cabinet, a rolltop desk with chair, a console table, a vintage dresser, and two dining room table/chair sets (one of which I might keep for myself and the other a Henredon).
I do still have the following items available:
German Glider/Rocking Horse, Pixie Dust Pink Dresser, French Provincial Dresser & Nightstand, and Antique Twin Bed. I believe the Sewing Machine Accent Table is still available through sweetmoxie@yahoo.com, as well.
Thank you for checking out B's Refurnishings!

Antique Single Metal Bed

I wish I could honestly say I painted and distressed this piece but I did not. This has been in my guest bedroom for the past year and it is darling! This piece is painted white with minor distressing. This would be a great bed for a guest room or a child's room. The frame is extremely sturdy. It measures 78"x42"x50"-headboard & 33.5" -footboard (l,w,h). The rails are 13.5" from the ground.

Only $100. (SOLD)






(Note: mattress and bedding not included)

French Provincial Dresser & Nightstand

The pulls finally arrived! Here are the French Provincial dresser and nightstand I mentioned in a previous post. This set is painted antique white and has been antiqued. The pulls go along with the French Provincial theme, as well. The dresser has nine drawers and measures 62"x18"x31" (l,d,h) and the nightstand has two drawers and measures 21.5"x16.5"x23.5" (l,d,h). I think this style is so romantic! The dresser and nightstand will not be sold separately.

Only $275. (SOLD)

Antique Writing Desk (Commissioned)

Remember THIS piece? Someone emailed me a few weeks ago when they noticed that 1) the teal desk was sold & 2) I had an antique writing desk on my "coming soon" post. She requested that I do the antique writing desk similar to the vintage double pedestal desk. This particular piece is an antique from the McCall, ID school district and is thought to be an old accountant's desk. It has a hole in the right corner that was originally used for ink. I wanted to modernize the desk so I found the perfect size vase for either flowers or pencils. I am in love with the outcome!

~SOLD







**If you are interested in future pieces I mention in the "coming soon" posts or have a piece of your own furniture that you would like painted then I would love to see if I could help! Send me an email with a picture of the piece and we can go from there.

Vintage Sewing/Accent Table - Still Available

I received an email from the lady who purchased the Vintage Sewing/Accent Table. She said she loves the piece but is forced to sell it. If you are interested in the fun accent table then please contact Tonya at sweetmoxie@yahoo.com. It is $120.

**Pictures can be seen in the post below.

Vintage Sewing/Accent Table

This vintage sewing/accent table features a clean-lined design that will blend easily with any decor. I painted this piece with Sea Mist Green and added a fun knob made of mini green stones and gold beads. I love this piece because it would make such a fun accent table. Add it to your living room furniture as an end table, or place it next to your bed as a nightstand.
This piece measures 22"x18.5"x30.5" (l,d,h).

Coming Soon!

I am waiting on the pulls to arrive for the newly refinished French Provincial dresser and nightstand. As soon as they arrive I will be posting that piece. It is precious! Next up is the sewing side table - I am thinking a fun green with a funky knob!

Vintage Double Pedestal Desk

I have this unique vintage double pedestal desk painted a fun teal. I painted this piece many times to allow the black, red, and natural wood to show through where it has been distressed. It has also been coated with poly for durability. This desk has the original hardware and is made of solid wood. It would make a fun accent in your home office. It measures: 44"x19.5"x30" (l,d,h) and has seven drawers total in perfect working condition. I had so much fun creating this piece because it is so eclectic and colorful. This desk has a lot of personality and you definitely won't find another quite like it!

I am currently working on a vintage desk with unique square pulls and a sofa/hall table. Over the next week or so I will be working on a small desk with hutch, wooden floor length mirror, and a wooden accent chair with a fabric cushion.

There is a removable protective ring for older riders.
It measures 36"x15.5"x23" (l,w,h). This piece also matches the antique wooden high chair in the previous post. This rocking/glider horse would make an amazing accent piece in your nursery! Should you have any questions please contact me at bsrefurnishings@gmail.com.
