{Furniture Makeovers: Before and Afters}

I have been having the itch to do some much needed furniture re-dos! I love it!

The first one was an end table I refinished for my mother-in-law for Christmas! They have a gorgeous baby grand piano and had the idea of making it a sheet music side table. I like how it turned out! They were both craigslist finds.....Let me know what ya think :)

BEFORE:




AFTER:







The next one I did was a temp dresser for this rental home and might end up in our guest room eventually...not sure about the 2 different colors but like the contrast!


BEFORE:



AFTER:




Next on my list is a hope chest/bench and my kitchen table and chairs!!! :)

As you can see from the pictures he started feeling a bit sick.....just look at those cute rolls! :)












"It's my party and I'll cry if I want to"!!!............
"THE" party: It was his bedtime and well....he ended up poopin' out at his own party and went to bed. :)



Happy Birthday to my all grown up baby!!! We love you!!
