This piece looks like a nice, pull out stool to keep stylishly tucked away until you need to reach something around the house. And it totally is. It also happens to be very, very sturdy. Like really heavy – no way it is going to tip sturdy! Two coats of MMSMP in Trophy and some antiquing wax have given it a whole new look!

We love these – I always look for them when I am buying furniture for the store. While they are traditionally a magazine holder, I think they are perfect for a laptop or iPad charging area. Need to clear some of the clutter off your desk? File your electronics away into this handy-dandy holder! This one is redone in Jolie Uptown Ecru with some light distressing to show through the beautiful original wood undertone.

We have certainly found some pretty scrolled tables recently. See our previous post for a table refurbished using Jolie Linen. This time we chose one of my favorite neutrals, Jolie Swedish Gray, and then did some heavy distressing to show off all the scrolled details. What do you think? I love it!

It happens from time to time. In all the excitement of getting started on a new piece of furniture, I forget to take a before picture. I love to see how paint can transform pieces from blah to fab and I want to show our customers how easy it is to update that piece that is taking up space in the garage or that you pause every time you walk by because it has been on the to-do list for way too long. Well, this time you’ll need to take my word for it. It was cherry with old hardware and not much in the way of interest other than those lovely queen anne legs. Here she is, with two coats of Jolie Paints in Linen and some Jolie Clear Wax for protection.

This handy table did not make it long on the sales floor. A mom and daughter came in for several pieces in black (or in the is case almost-black). Two coats of Jolie Graphite with some clear wax for a quick but impressive update!
