Painting Furniture

In 2016 right after my second son was born I decided that the time has come to finally work for myself. As we went though so much that year I decided to buy some furniture with the only $100 I had saved and see if I could just flip them…… Well that was working pretty well, but I didn’t feel satisfied, I needed more. (Not that having a New born at the time and a 11YO wasn’t enough) My mother in law brought a lady over who had a booth, and she wanted to buy some unpainted pieces for my prices and with no hassle. I decided to investigate what she did with them and saw that she was painting them and selling them for large profits more than I was making……. So I decided to give it a try, at first it wasn’t easy, I didn’t like it, I wanted to stop everyday. Then something happened and I started to love it…….. I was learning new techniques, meeting people in the same industry as me and getting a larger following. It became Boosted Treasures officially in 2017!

Every step of this process has been enjoyable and challenging……. I have had mistakes, and failures, repaints and everything under the sun. BUT Also I am always creating with new designs, styles and textures! I love to play with all kinds of products. Maybe sometimes I’ll only use them once but maybe I’ll love them, like Dixie Bell products…… No lie I used to be against chalk paint until I tried it, now that’s pretty much all I use unless I spray and them it’s strictly Sherwin Williams Flat paints…..

More coming soon………..
