A Journey in Furniture Refinishing (Part III)

Violet Ewell, Blu Cabinet co-owner, is refinishing an old headboard for her guest bedroom. She will catalogue her adventure in a series of posts:


I actually finished the headboard sometime ago. We've been so busy with opening the new stores, I didn't finish this series! I got the ebony stain on the board and sealed it (which took forever to dry!).

I waited a long time for the headboard to dry to make sure the it would not stain my carpet. When dry, we moved the headboard into the guest bedroom and I completed the rest of the furnishings. And voila! A dark headboard for my black and white room (with red accent)!

Kuwait school teacher turned interior designer

"She is petite, quiet and elegant. That is until you start discussing her childhood passion of decorating. That is when you see the fire ignite and the passion burn. This one time school teacher has turned her hobby into a career, taking bold steps in the interior design world to amalgamate elements from different ages into an exciting, fresh look for the modern home.

That passion has now been realized as this unassuming Kuwaiti Interior Designer Sara Al-Hatem launches her first book, 'Interior Design - Modernity and Distinction.' Al-Hatem's inner beauty, elegance, and attention to detail transcends into her work, producing stunning results for her clients."

Creative Interior Design Idea #2

If a room in your home lacks character, adding wall art can make an impact. Large wall pieces can be pricey and heavy. Stretching decorative fabric over a wood frame creates a large piece of art for an affordable price.

A Journey in Furniture Refinishing (Part II)

Violet Ewell, Blu Cabinet co-owner, is refinishing an old headboard for her guest bedroom. She will catalogue her adventure in a series of posts:

Below is a photo of the headboard after I stripped it.





Today I preconditioned the wood. Conditioning helps the stain apply uniformly. Shortly I need to stain the headboard. I'm staining it black. I think I got through the most tedious part, because stripping the old finish was no fun.

A Journey in Furniture Refinishing (Part I)

Violet Ewell, Blu Cabinet co-owner, is refinishing an old headboard for her guest bedroom. She will catalogue her adventure in a series of posts:

I've never refinished furniture before, but I had an old wood headboard that I didn't want to waste. My brother, Jay, is an expert, so I sought advice from him. He told me about the basics of stripping, staining and selecting a finish coat. 

I stripped the old finish off the headboard and now I need to pre-condition then stain. Hopefully I'll get to it this week and add pictures. 

Launch!
