Can't wait any longer!

I have so many things that I am wanting to post about this week. But all I can do is love on my new buffet. Given to me by my dear friend "Lee", who found it on craigslist.org for a fantastic price of FREE!

Lee is my thriftiest of friends, and my new buffet was my most favorite birthday present.

The gift...

A broken leg was fixed via "Lee's" other half, and sanded to perfection by my better half. :)

It was definitely a labor of love because I absolutely HATE sanding.

What I did:

Primed

Lightly Sanded

Painted

Lightly Sanded

Roughed up the edges with gritty sand paper

"stained" the rough spots

Varnish varnish varnish...

Hardest part - I then let my present cure for 3 days. Waiting to put it in the house was torture.

Now it is happily in my entryway brightening everything up!

I had to take a picture at night while things were tidy and the 3 little ones were in sleepy land.

This color below is more correct of what it looks like in person.

Are you now craving a refinishing project?

Send pictures of your projects to thesassypepper@gmail.com so we can do a little show and tell!

Sassy and I love to be inspired!

Cheers,
