A DIY Project

If you know me, you know that I love to take on projects.

I am not always the most effecient at finishing projects,

but I do like to start them.

For the past year I have seen before/after

projects all over the internet involving

old pieces of furniture which were

given a cute facelift.

This, is my version.

Brandon an I found this very cute buffet (?) before we were married.

We were taking a Sunday stroll and we glanced upon this beauty.

 Brandon, being the smarter half of our relationship hastily

scribbled out a SOLD sign and pasted it on the chest

until Monday morning when he called and made arrangements

to purchase the chest for a measly fifty dollars.

I love him.

This chest plagued my mother-in-law by sitting in her extra room for four months.

Recently, we picked it up and somehow got it into our trailer, quite the feat.

We picked up Fresh Linen paint and went to work.

I, honestly, put a few brush strokes on but had to leave

due to a pressing engagement, ie the art festival with my friends.

When I came home, my eyes alighted on this new gorgeous piece of furniture.

My husband is amazing!

We are currently trying out different knobs, pictured are a set from Anthropologie.
