Hello, I’m Maria. I used to teach but now I paint. Though not a trained artist like so many in my family, I have a desire to play with paint, especially on vintage furniture that my husband and I salvage. Often in need of repairs, I strive to bring treasures back to life, with a colorful twist. Turns out more than 9,000,000 pieces (over 12 million tons!) of furniture make it to U.S. landfills each year. I love that we can rescue quality pieces– and not contribute to a staggering problem. Using the best non-toxic products and luxury added details makes my heart do a happy dance. Come visit our little studio shop in the West Cottage of Milford’s historic Waterwheel Mill shops and restaurant.
