The Office

Posted by Alyson | November 14, 2017

Posted by Alyson | August 9, 2017

I have learned a few more things about stripping: The hard stuff works so much faster. Laying it on thick really works.

Nightstand Project

Posted by Alyson | July 25, 2017

Some progress is being made in my daughter’s bedroom, albeit slowly.  I’ve acquired a new bed frame, a desk to paint and turn into a vanity, and am re-doing some nightstands and a dresser.  I’m hoping to sell her existing furniture on Craigslist, Letgo or FaceBook Marketplaces, all have been seriously good to me.
