Derby, Kansas What's not to love about goin' junkin' and garage salin'?!

Finding an outdated or j***y piece of furniture and restating its purpose or look is very satisfying! "Rephrasing" pieces from the past is a hobby of mine. Many of the pieces I have reclaimed are in my home, however, I can't keep every treasure I find! I would love to pass them on to you; therefore, I had the idea of creating CJ Periwinkle. If you like vintage, cottage, shabby, and chippy, I would

love to help you fill your home with pieces you love. A little about the name:
CJ comes from my initials, and I love periwinkle blue! I love the old time mercantiles and dry goods shops (probably from growing up watching Little House on the Prairie) so I thought CJ Periwinkle sounded like a fun, quaint name like the proprietor of a mercantile. My purpose in life:
My goal is to glorify and serve my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. "Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." I Corinthians 10:31

I have really enjoyed spending time in the beauty of God's creation down by the river this year. I don't usually take time to share the photos, but I think I will this time.

Here's the story: We've already painted a kitchen for this client, she LOVED it! It had a beautiful stone backsplash that coordinated so well with the freshly painted cabinets. It was dreamy! But, *life* happened and she had to move, leaving behind her beloved kitchen. Her new house had this fireplace that needed some love. She couldn't get the beautiful stone from the previous house out of her mind. Not wanting the cost of replacing the 80's style brick-look tile with the stone she so loved, she asked us to perform a miracle or two. (Swipe for before picture.) We weren't quite sure how we were going to duplicate the look of the stone on the tile, but with more than just a few prayers we started painting away. Mixing grays and whites, dabbing blacks and dotting browns, we made her dream of transforming tile to stone come to life. Just look at the detail! We finished the project with a clear coat sealer for added protection.
We're not done working for this special client yet, we'll be back to do more cabinets and her fireplace mantel in the future.
What can we do for you in the mean time?

This is the final product of a kitchen and laundry room make over from early last year. (You can see before pictures in the previous post.)
The home owners replaced backsplash, flooring, reconfigured the island, and had us refinish all their cabinets (Island excluded; they had it built.) We love seeing clients' personal styles and tastes come together to make their house a home. From the details of the backsplash to the color combos of cabinets and island, everything flows together marvelously and shows the personal touch of the family.
We love making dreams of refinished kitchens, cabinets, and furniture come to life! What visions can we make a reality for you?

This job is now complete! We installed the doors and drawers today. Neither wind, nor rain, nor life interruptions deterred us from getting the job done. Though it certainly brought delays! 😂 Glad to be finished.
We will return to get some awesome photos when the client gets her new countertops, backsplash, island, and flooring!

Done for the day! I rarely get as far as I'd like when I have to do oak since the grain causes so much work, but good progress was made-- finished two coats of primer.

I got to enjoy the beautiful changing sky all day.
Tomorrow I sand and get to spray the first layer of topcoat!

Edit:
There are 3 times as many doors and drawers in the garage just in case anyone thinks this is all I got done all day! 😜

Backrolling and priming oak doors 😜 and fighting the drizzle and chilly weather! But it shall get done!

Started another kitchen yesterday with my crew! It's our first time time to mask off everything for spraying the cabinet boxes indoors. Wow. It's a learning curve. We'll see tomorrow when I spray if it was worth the work!

I love this client's eye for color and her ability to use the complementary color scheme. So many fun elements with the copper, terra cotta, cobalt, and orange. In the summer you should see her amazing plant and succulent collection!
The day we began the project the client was calmly painting in her studio like she wasn't leaving on vacation out of the country in a couple of hours. 😊 And you should see her incredible artwork in oils. So impressive and life-like.
It was nice to have the homeowners come home to a finished project after their enjoyable time away.
Check out the pictures and captions of the countertops!

Sneak peek! I'll post pics of the whole project after the client has seen her kitchen first. 😊

We got a LOT done in 2 days. All the sanding and cleaning prep is finished, all doors primed, and primer on the cabinet frames close to being done.
I missed getting another photo of one of my other helpers. He brought us lunch and set up my make-shift paint booth for Monday!
We are pretty beat, but we have a day of rest and church tomorrow. Praise the Lord for His plan of rest!
Monday we'll be ready to start sanding primer and spraying topcoat.
