Faux French Provincial Face-Lift

Well, it is almost Friday, ok to be technical in 30 minutes, but close enough. So, I thought I would share for our Furniture Friday Flip.

Furniture Flip Friday (or Monday) !!

One of the many joys of my business is furniture over-hauls. Just like anything else, sometimes gems just need a lil’ polishing. Well, and cleaning, and painting, and sanding….

My goal is to have FURNITURE FLIP FRIDAYS twice a month to share with you a before and after of a piece and how you can achieve a similar look, or if you want to purchase the flipped piece you could do that as well!
