Stella...Oh She's GORGEOUS!!!

Stella was a twin to Estelle who was a stunner placed in a wonderful home a few months ago. Stella is going to a new home too and I'm sure she will be loved just as much.
This is Stella all finished. 



This was Stella when we started. I originally thought she was painted black, but that is actually just varnished. The entire thing is crackled, which I think adds to her beauty.



 This is Stella during her make-over. Stripping is always disgusting, but when you put the stain on and wipe it off, its like Christmas...so beautiful.







 The last photo is of her Twin sister, Estelle.

Sarah's Buffet and a Few other Projects

 My best friend Sarah has wanted a buffet for a long time. We finally found her a Knechtel solid walnut one. It's going to be perfect in her home painted in old ochre.
