It’s a sanding kind of day here today.

Sometimes your initial vision doesn’t go according to plan 🤷🏻‍♀️

These draws were a set I had done a while back, although an eye catching print was decoupaged on the front, they just weren’t really what anyone wanted so it was back to the drawing board for this furniture refurbisher 🤪

This gorgeous set is now modern, sleek and just the right amount of understated.

For sale $180
Ellenbrook pick up 👍

If you answered YES to any of these questions then send me a message 🙂

Custom commission pieces are fast becoming my niche market.
I have many happy clients who I have refurbished pieces for and they have been extremely happy with my quality of work.

“I have seen your work and it looks quite nuanced and of high quality!”

“Hey Bek! That looks absolutely amazing i love it”

I’d love to hear from you and have a chat about what you are after.

I take the time to truly understand YOU and bring your visions to life.

💙💚No Filter Required 💚💙 this gorgeous old dresser has well and truly been given a whole new lease on life. From the curved drawer faces to the stunning stiletto legs 😍 Gulf Stream for the top and sides and then used Popcorn to combine with the Gulf Stream to make the gorgeous ombré effect on the drawer fronts. All sealed in water based polyurethane sealer in a satin finish. Swipe to see the before photo. I’m in absolute awe of the finished product and so is my client.

⭐️ SWIPE TO SEE BEFORE PHOTOS ⭐️ these absolutely gorgeous bedside tables were not in a good way when I picked them up…. At all. Layers and layers of different paints thick and uneven. After stripping it all off with and sanding back, I prepped with 4in1 prep. Followed up with 2 coats of in a lovely and sealed with polyurethane sealer in a satin finish. Draw front have been decoupaged using a gorgeous print I found at my local and sealed again using the cabins polyurethane satin sealer. The quality brass k***s finish this piece off beautifully. Sooo happy with the finished product.

A personal job this time around.

Our kids “Drop Zone”.

With 3 kids to get ready for school each morning it’s great to have 1 place for bags, shoes, homework folders and library bags!

And it’s functional enough that it can be used for other things later down the track.

Not bad for a roadside find 🤩

Quick flip I did today! Love the pairing of these gold k***s with in Timberline.

12/06/2021

Word of mouth is the best form of advertising for small little businesses so i would love if you could leave a review on my page.

Thanks so much

Nothing speaks “so right now” than wood grain top and white base. This beautiful pine TV unit was great but with a bit of and time it has become amazing, sleek and modern. My client wanted to keep all original hardware as well as the glass door fronts which I think look beautiful, especially when they reflect onto the white paint 😃

Photos from Upcycled by Bek's post 09/06/2021

This cabinet had seen better days, and although some of the structural issues were not able to be fixed entirely, the revamp on this dated display cabinet have been massive. The back board and shelves were warped and cracked and while the client didn’t want any of it replaced, I did my best to make cosmetic fixes to produce a sleek and smooth finish.

Sleek and modern !!!! This piece was lovely anyway, but a freshen up with some paint it has a totally new lease on life.
