In the beginning....

So, I thought I'd try out blogging to track the progress of my new house.. I should have started it when I started refurbishing my furniture, but it's too late for that now, since it's finally done! (not to worry it only took 2 months- but it turned out beautifully) I would love to have a workshop so I could work on furniture more often.. but I'll have to be content to stick with a day job.

Here's an example of a project we (my sisters & I) did for a friend of ours- it was a surprise room "make-over" and this was an addition to the front room... The first picture is the drawing of what we wanted the project to look like.. (the base was a coffee table we bought and added on to to make the entertainment center.) the next picture is obviously the finished project. I think the hardest part about the project was getting the paint on the top we built to match the pre-done bottom. In the end, it turned out fantastic!
