Matching Window Treatments

~ These clients had requested faux painting throughout much of their home.  After painting the vines around the home, they asked if I could make window treatments to match.  Here are the results ~


~ Here is part of their kitchen around the pantry door ~

~ This collage shows (although from a slightly different angle) the windows and surrounding area BEFORE and AFTER ~

~ Another area which was faux painted.  The arches have been painted to look like stone work. ~

Hydrangea Nursery

Hydrangea's are such beautiful flowers.  They are PERFECT for a little girls room, powder room, or for this darling nursery.  

I painted them on the walls in a random pattern and added the swirls for extra interest.


A matching "Measuring Tree" to keep track of the little one's growth.



 And, the finished product with a name plate for baby Maleah!

Cabinets & Doors

If you're thinking about replacing cabinets or doors - you know how costly that can be.  However, refinishing them will give your home that updated custom look you desire - for a fraction of the cost.  Here are some "Before's and After's" for you to choose from!

Bathroom vanity - Before
 After
 Another bath "after"
 Kitchen cabinets - Before
 After - a beautiful Cherry Wood finish
 These cabinets were originally a "pinkish yellow" oak
 Now look at the crisp clean white!
 Here is an antiqued white look.
A cherry finish

 The warm teak "Tommy Bahama" look

 The doors and all woodwork in this home were plain white
 This is an "in progress" photo of the same door.
 And these VERY tall double doors were also plain white
And the finished product!

Hide-A-Cabinet

~ My clients have this galvanized cabinet outside their home which houses the hot water heater.  They wanted to find a way to make it blend in with the home, rather than stand out so prominently. ~
 ~ I was able to faux paint rocks on the cabinet to help it blend in with the surroundings. ~
 ~ And, on this side - a little touch of whimsy.  I added some geraniums to match those in their yard. ~
