GIVEAWAY for Furniture Lovers

HAPPY NEW YEAR 

G  I  V  E  A  W  A  Y  

In case you didn't know it,

there is a new book out that

YOU

should have in your home library

IF and only IF

you own furniture ---

specifically 

wooden furniture.

I'm talking about 

THE FURNITURE BIBLE

by Christophe Pourny

Have to make a special shout out to my sweet mother-in-law 
who found this book and sent it to me for Christmas -  such a great gift!  

Since one of my businesses

is an antique/vintage shop

I have accumulated lots of books

on refinishing and repairing furniture but

 none of them 

compare to this one.

Unless you have a 

wood-refinisher/handyman/artist/repairman 

on staff to handle the care 

of your wood furniture...

this book has what you need
to care for and maintain

your wood pieces -- whether they be

priceless antiques or not.

Many furniture books explain how 

the professionals restore pieces,

but this one takes you through the steps

(that you and I can understand and follow)

and provides tips and color photographs

to illustrate the history of furniture,
understanding the pieces that you have, 
how they are put together, 
what stains or paints of finishes they have on them 
and how to take care of them using historic processes 
that Mr. Pourny was taught by his father, 

a master refinisher in France.

Here are the chapters:

-Meet your furniture

- Finishing school

- Prep School

- Techniques

- Tool school

- The care and feeding of your furniture

- Resources

and more

Martha Stewart 

wrote the preface of this book 

 and I doubt she endorses

something if she doesn't 
strongly believe in it.

The tools and things you will need to properly care for your pieces.
