I'm so in love

I am so in love with this last project I've finally finished. I got this piece at a little gift shop that was going out of business. All had to go including furniture. This was an old brown thing. I sanded it down and painted it white and hit a delay figuring out what to do w/ the back of it. I decided to order wallpaper and covered the back w/ this yellow damask. I am drooling w/ love. It turned out SO great! I can't wait to get all of my goodies into it! The bottom is a great place to store toys in our front room. Hmmmmm, love!

Before... in pieces


After... love


I've also finished G's desk and Q's chair.

I found G's desk on craigslist. I probably paid a little too much for it, but it was still only $20. Just, compared to Q's desk that is so beefy that I got for the same price, I feel I overpaid! Whatever!
The legs on this little desk were sort of retro and looked feminine to me, so I bought some wood and had M cut and attach it to the desk. I went w/ blue and still don't have drawer pulls. I have to special order those!

And, Q's chair I got at a yard sale for $1. Isn't it a jewel? I love how it turned out.
