I’ve always had a soft spot for furniture pieces I’ve always had a soft spot for furniture pieces that are imperfect, timeworn and storied. Such was the case with this petite French bombe chest. My friend found it for me and told me it was damaged and unsalvageable, having soaked in Hurricane Katrina’s flood waters for weeks. But I loved its story and decided that I would salvage it and give it a makeover, all the while keeping its storied scars! Today, it’s one of my favorite pieces!

I found this pretty antique chest at an estate sal I found this pretty antique chest at an estate sale this past weekend. It has such a pretty hand painted detail on the front! It’s pretty large, and after bringing it home, it didn’t fit where I thought it would go, so we did some “musical chairs” with the furniture over the weekend!

When you take an old piece of furniture and give i When you take an old piece of furniture and give it a makeover, you’re giving it new life and possibly saving it from being dumped in a landfill. 

Whether you strip it down and re-stain  or paint it, neglected vintage and antique furniture can be turned into heirlooms once again. 

This antique demilune cabinet had lots of issues when we found it at the estate sale and no one was giving it a second look. Fortunately, I fell in love with its shape and knew that it could be transformed into a thing of beauty! Want see the before?
