Euphemeral Designs

This is both a very appealing store and a very capable furniture restoration company. I came in to have a piece restored, but the quality of the inventory is really impressive as well.
They’re located in an old house on 6^th, right on a corner lot. They’ve turned the front rooms over to be their showroom floor – you can see lots of shots of the types of pieces they offer. Their stock changes all the time, like any good antique-​based store. They always have tons of interesting pieces, usually with some vintage-​look restoration done to them (most likely in-​house).
I brought in an old telephone table that needed a complete overhaul (see attached photos). The owner assessed it, found a great color for the finished product, dug up some cool hardware to add, and went to work restoring it. She sanded it down and put coat after coat of paint on it. It’s such an old piece that it sucked up multiple coats, and it took an extra couple days to dry completely. She finished it with a wax that will need a couple more weeks to cure.
This was quite a bit of work (and probably twice as much as paint as she anticipated), but she charged me a flat $ 130 for the whole project. Very reasonable, really. You pay by Square in the store, and she’s a fantastic person to communicate with – we exchanged messages through her Facebook page on the weekends. That’s one thing to keep in mind. This place is only open weekends, and you’ll have the easiest luck getting a hold of her on the weekends, too. During the week she has a family and a day job to look after.

I love this shop! They always have a ton of unique furniture finds, I’m a total addict. I follow them on Facebook so I can always see what new goodies are avail. Wish I lived closer, I’d come in all the time!
