The Charlie's Angels Of Furniture Flippin'

If you have a piece of furniture in need of rescue and you live in the Jacksonville, Florida area I have just the trio for you to call.  Say hello to Debbie, Diane and Talea...they could be The Charlie's Angels of the furniture flippin' world if it weren't for their moniker already being Vintage Sisters. (Excuse my poor rendering of a new logo for you.  I don't suggest you use it.  Someone else could do better.  Hehehe...)

Recently these three friends were presented with the challenge of transforming this sad desk.  

They chose to paint it with Valspar Signature Posh Red mixed with Paint Minerals.  This was followed by Martha Stewart Black Coffee Glaze and Maison Blanche Light Brown Wax.  For the top, they used Black Coffee Glaze with a hint of Muscavado Glaze.

Not overlooking one single feature of this makeover, they used a Paris burlap print to recover the chair as well as lining the drawers.


The new hardware was gilded in Baroque Art Antique Gold.

What a wonderful difference!  Top notch job there ladies!

Let's check out the entire piece, shall we?

I'll tell you what...I'd happily sit there and pay bills or study up on...who we kidding?  I'd happily sit there and surf the internet.  My laptop would match it perfectly, too!  

You can follow along on the adventures of the Vintage Sisters by heading over to their Vintage Sisters Facebook page.  There you will see a lot more gorgeous examples of their work.  Get over there, give them a "like" and let them know you saw them on Furniture Flippin'.

Thanks so much Debbie, Diane, and Talea for sharing your fabulous furniture flip!

That does it for this week.  I know I shortchanged you with only showing you four flips this week and not five.  I can't say that won't happen again now that the weather is finally breaking here in Illinois.  Be sure and check in with me on the weekends via our Furniture Flippin' Facebook page or Twitter.  You know I'm hard at work when I bombard you with nonstop commentary and pics on either one of those.  Hey, I take frequent breaks.  If you were here working with me, I'd make you take frequent breaks, too!  
Have a great weekend!
