Misc. Furniture

This page shows you some of the miscellaneous furniture I've made over the years. These pictures show a sofa valet that I made in a high school wood shop class as an independent project.

This is what the bottom of my bathroom mirror looked like when I first moved into my apartment. I hated how it looked so I made a frame to go around the mirror and cover it up.

These are some pieces of trim that I bought. I measured them to the correct lengths and then I used a chop saw to cut them at 45 degrees. Then I spray painted the planks.

This is what the bathroom mirror looks like with the trim on it. I used double sided foam adhesive to stick it to the mirror. This makes the project renter-friendly because I can take the mirror down when I move out without causing any damage.

This is a desk that I bought off of Facebook Marketplace in 2019.

The desk was very dingy, had a lot of dents, and had so many layers of paint on it.

I used a paint stripper, a metal scraper, and a palm sander to remove all of the paint.

After I paint stripped the smaller pieces, I used sandpaper to sand the hard to reach spots.

This out of focus picture shows what the desk looked like when I finished stripping the paint.

I filled in the dents with wood putty and then I painted the desk with 3 coats of new paint.

I changed the drawer knobs and removed the bars from the top of the desk.

I bought a vanity mirror that I put on top of this desk.

This is what the desk looked like at the end.

This is an old love seat that my aunt gave me in 2020. I liked the shape of the couch but was not a fan of the color.

I reupholstered this couch and started by taking the old fabric off.

I picked out a new, nicer fabric to use as the new upholstery.

I traced the old fabric pieces that I took off to make the new replacement pieces.

I got to work stapling the new pieces in place in the reverse order that I took them off.

This is what the couch looked like when it was finished. I used it in my dorm when I moved to college.
