MAKE SOMETHING OLD LOOK NEW REFINISHING THE SHELF

“You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” – Dr. Maya Angelou

Beautiful spirit, I have shared many things that I’ve been working on including maintaining and adding home decor pieces to my GEM Designs, LLC Booth inside Antiques & Artisans. Refinishing the shelf is the latest project update that I’m posting.

Your dedication to your craft shines through in every project you undertake, and it’s inspiring to see the passion you bring to each endeavor. Refinishing the shelf for your GEM Designs, and  LLC Booth inside Antiques & Artisans is a testament to your commitment to quality and attention to detail.

As you work on refinishing the shelf, you’re not just restoring it to its former glory; you’re breathing new life into it, transforming it into a piece that’s not only functional but also a work of art in its own right. Each brushstroke, each coat of paint or varnish is a labor of love, meticulously applied to ensure the final result meets your exacting standards.

When the shelf is finally completed and proudly displayed in your booth, it will not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the space but also serve as a showcase for your talents and expertise. Customers who visit Antiques & Artisans will be drawn to the beauty and craftsmanship of your work, eager to bring a piece of GEM Designs, LLC into their own homes.

So as you continue to refine the shelf and prepare it for its debut in your booth, know that your efforts are appreciated and admired. Your dedication to excellence sets you apart, and I have no doubt that your booth will continue to be a destination for those seeking unique and exquisite home decor pieces.

Refinishing the shelf and making something old look new again is what I’ve done with this cute little shelf. Had I been thinking I would have taken a picture of the shelf before and after. I will try and remember to do that when I complete my next project. Unless I specifically say the piece is for my home, it will be in my booth.

Now check out this little cutie. Now what’s really interesting is, you probably didn’t know that at one point I wanted to be an interior designer. Isn’t REFINISHING THE SHELF amazing the way things come together?!

Here’s to making something old look new again.

What are your thoughts on refinishing home decor or furniture? I’ve done end tables and small tables, and it’s wasn’t too bad. I currently have a table in my trunk right now that I need to take out and complete. Stay tuned for that.

Refinishing furniture can be fun, contingent upon your workspace, and the amount of manual labor that you have to put into it.

Some of the tools of the trade you’ll want to invest in are the right paint brushes, paint of your choosing, and a sander. We’ll get into that at another time.

Whether the piece is large or small, or if you’re curious, buy some paint and go for it! Don’t forget to share!

This would be a cute Valentine’s Day gift! How about this shelf and a handmade gift tag and card?! They are readily available in my booth. Check them out!

Here’s to creating!
