my first furniture re-do



I have really been wanting to try my hand at re-doing furniture lately and got the perfect opportunity when I found this piece while on a walk in Daphne.  They were throwing it away.  I made Gabe go knock and the door just to make sure that we could have it and they said to please take it, so we did.  I sanded it down, primed and painted it.  I was even able to use the original knobs, so it ended up being a very cheap project (under $20).  I enjoyed doing it so much that I have since started two more furniture projects.  A hutch that is done except for new knobs (pictures to come) and a kitchen table.  Wish me luck on that one.   

Home Sweet Home....











So we are finally getting settled in our new home and I figured it was time to post some pictures.  The only pictures I have were taken before we moved in.  I will eventually take some pictures with our stuff in!
