Sorry, nothing found.
If there’s anything we’ve learned from our time online and around the DIY circles, there are just some things you should have a professional do. Family heirlooms shouldn’t be your first foray into DIY. There are too many things that can go wrong, and if you don’t know what you’re doing it can make problems worse.
This particular client was tired of dated stain look and wanted to spruce it up a bit. The set in “circa 1950” is of excellent quality, featuring triple geared slides and is made of solid maple. We here at Foxwood Furniture chemically stripped the hutch table and 8 chairs.
The set had 2 chairs that were broke at the joints, which our skilled craftsmen were able to repair in house. Our in-house upholsterer recovered all the seats with a tight, new beautiful fabric.
Whether your piece of furniture is from a flea market, old friend or you’ve had it since the beginning of time, it can be refinished. Our experts are tasked with refinishing wood furniture every day. With our customer’s desired look in mind, it’s up to our professional woodworkers in Michigan, on how the piece will be refinished and repaired if necessary. There are many popular furniture finishes available including color and style of finish.
Want a new look, or maybe an old or antique look? We love to reproduce the look of an old piece that has multiple layers of paint. For this, we apply multiple colors of paint and aging techniques to achieve a heavy quality look of a cracked patina finish.
Colored stain finishes have become very popular. If you’re looking to add some color to your wood surface, colored stain will give you the look with beautiful long-lasting results. Add color to your home and create a unique look by refinishing your wood furniture with colored stains. You can match other pieces of furniture you have or create new finishes for a stylish look.
We took this lovely old table that was painted white and found solid oak wood underneath. We decided to use a new weathered grey-tone stain on this table. We varied the degree of transparency by adding a second coat of grey stain. You can still see down to the original beautiful oak grain. However, the new gray stain creates a designer finish. In addition, we painted the legs black with a pearly glaze applied over the black paint. The refinished table with the colored grey stain was just what our clients wanted to meet their stylish home with grey accents.
Some optional ways of creating an antique look would be to use grey antiquing stain over a white base. Or, you could use Burnt Sienna glaze over a grey stain.
Each type of wood will accept the stain differently. Hardwoods do not drink in much color while softwoods accept more color. If the first coat of stain dries too light in value, you can brush on a second coat for a stronger level of color.
TRENDING NOW: Some new vogue stain color options are; light old rose pink, celadon green, and Robbins egg blue.
The richness achieved through staining a piece of beautiful grain furniture cannot be matched through paint. You can experiment with the different hues and what they do to each type of wood to achieve an endless selection of finished effects.
We have used colored stains and tinted stains for many of our refinished wood furniture pieces. Due to the high demand of stylish accents for homes, colored stains are a great option for transparent, natural beauty with character.
