We Take Custom Orders

Are you looking for something very specific, or do you already own a vintage piece of furniture that you are considering making over? We can help you to find or customize a piece specific to your needs.

We offer in-home or online design consultations, and we can keep our eyes peeled with you in mind while we are shopping for new inventory.  We maintain a small inventory of unfinished vintage pieces in our workshops as well, which can be customized.  For some added convenience, we can pick-up pieces and (once completed) deliver them within about a 40 mile radius of both workshop locations (Greater Newburyport and Westford).

Our most popular refinishing technique involves applying multiple coats of premium semi-gloss paint over two coats of primer. We can also do lacquer finishes, and very basic re-upholstery (e.g. dining chairs).

Feel free to scroll through our Blog Post Archive for inspiration, and email Phil @ santoro.phil@gmail.com to let us know your needs.  We're happy to help!

Pair of MCM Nightstands w/ Chrome Pulls - SOLD

This is a rad pair of vintage nightstands.  We handpicked them for their classic, clean lines and sleek metal drawer pulls. They were manufactured mid-century.  We redesigned and refinished them with Benjamin Moore Advance, a premium semi-gloss paint, over BIN primer.  The exact tone of the paint was hard to capture in photos, so we included a fairly accurate color swatch.  These pieces are very solid.  All of the drawers slide well.  They are constructed with dovetail joints.  Modestly sized, each nightstand measures: 16"W x 15"D x 26"H. 

These nightstands are currently on display at the beautifully renovated Barn at Todd Farm in Rowley. The Barn at Todd Farm is a brand new, multi-dealer antique, vintage, and handmade craft shop. The address for Todd Farm is 275 Main St./Rt 1A, Rowley, MA.  We can also accommodate private showings if you are unable to make it to The Barn during their hours of operation.
