All right, I am posting this bad boy for some project accountability.
This fantastic steamer trunk belonged to my Granna. There is even a shipping label on the side in her handwriting when she sent her things to college! I love it and I can’t wait to refinish it.
A few days ago I shared my Christmas decor for this year. (Yahoo!) I expect this is the last you will hear from me for the next week, as I will be fully enjoying holiday festivities, family, friends, and checking-out of the world! (Another Yahoo!)
About once a month my friend hosts a girls craft night at her house. Little does she know I’ve been trying to carve out some more time for keeping crafty (i.e. not spackling walls, sanding down dressers, or painting crown molding) so it’s been a great excuse for me to get back into it. Plus, crafting with friends is more fun.
You know you live in New England when you look forward to boot season more than flip-flop season. I love boots. They are my soul/sole footwear of choice.
One of my favorite types of gifts, to both give and receive, is something that is homemade.
For Christmas, my mother-in-law surprised us with a collection of DIY painted coasters!
This summer we passed the “one year” mark since we moved in – whoa!
Which means… I’ve been intending to write this post for the last 4 months.
This is not what the Stairway to Heaven looks like.
Last month I posted on some cabinet knobs that I was debating over for a dresser I was refinishing.
In fact, it it the first piece of furniture I have ever truly refinished!
I’ve finished raw wood and painted over old finishes, but I’ve never sanded a piece of furniture down to it’s raw state.
