reDONE

One thing I love to do is refinish furniture. I sometimes find pieces in the trash, take hand me downs or are given pieces.  Alot of times items of real value are tossed and I am just glad I am there to rescue some of them.

My friend Christina Escalante gave me this piece. It was a yellow-brownish color. The knobs were brass. My dad and I painted the under coat yellow and top coat gray, then used steel wool to give it the DISTRESSED look. The knobs were replaced by knobs found at Anthropolgy. This is my nightstand

This is Jim's nightstand, it was brown. My dad painted it solid gray and I replaced the knob with one from Anthropolgy.

I love the knob.....

kylie TURNS 10

 So this is Kylie's 10th birthday. It is an extremly important occasion for her, her family and friends.  Being that Kylie isn't into the party scene, her parents thought it would be fun to celebrate with all the people that have supported them through the years to this special day.

A homemade cards rule.  And so does her mom.

Kylie and her sister would rather lounge on the floor than hangout with the guest.
