Projects



It's amazing what a can of paint will do! These are a couple of projects I have been working on over the last few months. Instead of buying a new wood door (which I would love, but can't afford) I painted the front door (twice). The first time it turned out Barney purple (that's for those of you who remember Barney). Then, I had an oak hutch in my kitchen. It was my mom's, purely from the 80's. Instead of buying a new piece of furniture I painted it to look antique. I love it. It didn't cost much and looks great. I am now working on the oak kitchen table and chairs. The chairs are painted, but I won't get to the table until later this week. It's so much fun to make something "old look new".

Your door is beautiful! I think it's fun to do little jobs like these. Good work! Glad you got to work with Melissa. I sure do miss that.

Those are some pretty cute letters you have on your hutch! I love it! Great job. I am guessing you kept the door open the second go around. It all looks good:).
