Detail view of a wooden column with carvings which I refinished. The wooden columns were weathered and the paint was faded to a minimum, so the original hand painted look was completely gone before I was asked to refinish them.

Restoration of hand carved columns
To refinish these columns was a challenge indeed! The color of the four hand carved columns along a wonderful sparkling swimming pool of the Mulholland residence were brown and there was hardly any color left. Wind, sun and rain had caused the paint to fade away over the years.
The home owners contacted me and asked me to refinish the columns. And as you can see on the picture, I found my way to the beautul carvings.
Suddenly you could see some contrast and the real beauty of the columns.
See the details! It was amazing how they looked after I sealed them with a varnish.

Wall Cabinet inside - Wall Cabinet distressed, French Antique Style
Wall Cabinet distressed, French Antique Style
I bought this cabinet with at least 5 layers of paint on it. Everywhere there was a thick crust on old and new paint. So I sanded and sanded and sanded. Finally after many hours of sanding it started to look good. One layer of thin paint and another one with glaze, made the difference. Â
