Heirloom makeover

This heirloom was brought to us to have a makeover. It was a bedroom set passed down from generations before and the family didn't want to discard the pieces.

We stripped it down, did our magic, and whala......they turned out beautiful and now can be passed down to future generations.

Before Pictures:

 After Pictures:

These pieces cannot be replaced with modern furniture, the memories, the construction and the beauty in the design. And now they will last another 50 yrs if not longer.

Furniture Finishing Options

Flea Markets, Garage Sales, Craigs list are great ways to find sturdy furniture pieces that are built so much better than any furniture you can buy today in the big box furniture stores, or that discount place on the corner that advertises "Full Bedroom set $900" buyer beware, it only last as long as it takes to get the particle board out of the box it comes in. Once you go to put it together and your screw driver scrapes down to the fibers, your brand new Table is ruined.

Solution....find that special table you absolutely love the style but not the finish and have it redone. Just like you can change the material on that old couch you love but is worn, you can do the same with wood.

For instance....this adorable bedroom set was brought to us, bought at a thrift store and was in not so good condition. It looked old, no personality, just a plain solid light color. We took it and refinished it in a two tone finish. Cream solid color with a dirty brush glaze, and our Tobacco furniture technique as an accent.

Full size Head & Footboard, two night stands. $800.00

Holiday Makeover

You have family coming over for the holiday's and you say to yourself.. I need to do a facelift on my kitchen it's looking worn.

We have the answer.......refinish your woodwork! You can have a whole new look in time for the holiday's for a fraction of the cost of a new kitchen. Or check out one of our Vintage Rekindled peices to make a statement in that corner, next to your favorite chair, or new chairs for your holiday table.

Refinishing is a great alternative.

I am so excited to share pictures of our recent kitchen refinishing project. It turned out amazing. Another satisfied client of Salt Creek Finishing.

This Encinitas home literally 3blks from the beach, had a great kitchen layout. The Homeowner loved the layout, the countertops, flooring, etc. EXCEPT for the color of the Cabinets. This is where we work our magic.... We were able to save the Clients THOUSANDS of $$$ in the exspense of new cabinets, countertops, fixtures. We refinished the kitchen with a custom color the clients selected and gave them a whole new look with only the fraction of the cost of a new kitchen.

You too can make drastic changes working with your current cabinets. Don't be afraid to think outside the box. Visit our Facebook page www.facebook.com/saltcreek.finishing to preview photos of some of our projects. New Wood finishing, Refinishing projects, and our Vintage Furniture... refinished with a modern flair.

William Sonoma Steps Up

Today I was inspired by a great story on AOL about a story on Custom Cabinet Girl from Lodi, Ca. For all of us Family Owned business it is a great inspiration story. A lesson to be learned is to never give up on your dreams, even though we might have to change our path a bit it may take us on a much brighter journey.
