1. Painted: Whether it is a vintage shelf, old wooden crate, or a worn-out picture frame, a carefully chosen paint color(s) can revitalize the item.  Vibrant hues like turquoise, coral, or mint can inject a pop of color into any room, while neutral tones provide a clean and timeless lookl.

2. Textured: To add depth and character, texture is introduced. This might involve techniques like stenciling, decoupage, or applying raised patterns using pastes or molds.

3. Distressed: We use various methods including sandpaper and wet distressing to give an item a well-loved, aged appearance. This look imparts a sense of history and nostalgia to the piece, making it feel like a cherished heirloom.

4. Finished: A protective clear coat or wax is applied to preserve the new finish and enhance durability. This adds a subtle sheen, which can be matte or glossy depending on the desired aethetic.

The result of this process is a transformed item that's both functional and decorative.  These pieces are not just decor, they are a testament to the power of sustainable design and craftsmanship.
