Alana Solomon of Just Faux Fun, Inc., takes faux painting to the wild side.

Based in Wilmington, North Carolina, USA, Alana serves the east coast with all their faux-painting and artistic needs. Alana paints portraits, furniture, walls, ceilings, floors, mantles, stairs, columns, and much much more.FronbergerTigerMantle

Alana offers faux tiger patterns, faux leopard patterns, faux cheetah pattern, faux boa snakeskin, faux leather, faux shark skin, and much much more. Alana Solomon, master artist, is fluent in all things paint! She will paint anything that will hold still! Alana is somewhere right now swinging her paintbrush!FronbergerLeopardBathVanity

From powder rooms, to great rooms, to dining rooms, to master bedrooms, to bars, foyers, breakfast rooms, kitchens, elevators, wine cellars, studies, and much more, Alana paints anything, anywhere!FronbergerLeopardBath

Alana loves a challenge. This interior bridge was constructed of wood that didn’t satisfy the homeowner’s taste, so Alana transformed or “trans-fauxed” the wood into the desirable tone and grain pattern customized to the homeowner’s liking. Why live with a bridge over troubled colors? Call Alana and she will swing her magic brush and make you very very happy!

BelmontBridgeProject

BelmontBridgeProjectAfterCreating illusions is just part of what makes faux painting so desirable. Interior designers often prefer faux simply for the fact that it is a more controlled outcome. If you buy a bulk of knotty pine, you get whatever comes, lots of knots, sapwood, and color variations. Why not save a tree and call Alana to paint your study walls in mahogany, english pine, birds eye maple, walnut, rosewood, burl wood, teak, and much much more.

Dump the trash not the furniture!

KarenSadlerCabinetInteriorDo you have a piece of furniture that you think is ruined? Did you have a flood, or a bad dog, or a not so handy handyman? Before you head off to the city dump or pull your back out heading for the curb, call Alana, the furniture doctor and get a second opinion!KarenSadlerCabinetBaseW:banner

Call Alana at Just Faux Fun, Inc. in Wilmington, NC. You can even email Alana a photo of the “victim” and she can give you a “diagnosis” via email. Alana has fixed many, many wonderful things that had mishaps, termites, destructive pets,  children, hurricanes, etc.. Alana can patch, bondo, glue, faux finish to match missing veneers, missing carving, missing knobs, missing moldings and much, much more!

KarenSadlerCabinetBaseClosed

Perhaps your furniture or furnishings are family heirlooms and it breaks your heart to think of trashing them. Alana will bring her magic paintbrush and work wonders in restoring it to it’s former glory. She can match wood grains of all kinds, french provincial and french country style paint finishes, marquetry, mother of pearl, real and faux marble, fine painted designs, gold leaf and metallic patinas. You name it, she has even matched army camouflage, malachite, burl wood, leather, burlap, rattan, faux snakeskin, and mother of pearl!

It never hurts to see how little it may cost to save your wonderful piece from the graveyard of furniture wreckage. And what a great conversation piece to captivate your guests with the stories of battle scars, massacres and resurrection from an near-fated furniture fatale!KarenSadlerCabinetInteriorAfter

The proof is in the pudding. Judge for yourself and see if this fabulous cabinet was worth saving from the landfill. These clients were very satisfied and will enjoy the second life of their long-loved cabinet!KarenSadlerCabinetAfterW:banner
