The Leaf Dresser

So this little guy was a curbside pick up.

It was FREE but boy oh boy was it in horrible shape!

In fact when I brought it home my husband was really upset and said I need to be pickier with the things I'm picking up.  It had a hole on top of it...no lie!  It was dark when I picked it up in my defense...

I secretly agreed with him but didn't let him see me sweat!

Instead I stood up nice and tall and told him I had big plans for this piece and you just wait till I'm done....

Light Washed Denim Cabinet

I love this little record cabinet.  I saw it listed and just had to snatch it up.

I love the wood detailing.

The other night my daughter and I spent some time at our local Barnes and Noble browsing through several books.  I came across this photo in a book and I was inspired.

Part two of my Love Language

Hello friends!


This post is the update to this post.

So we didn't get the china cabinet but it wasn't because of my husband's unwillingness to go get it with me....  so he isn't the bad guy in this story!  lol

My Love Language

My love language is Acts of Service...

If you've never heard about the 5 love languages you can learn more about them here.


I read this book probably 10 years ago and learned so much, not only about myself, but also about the relationships around me.
I strongly recommend it if you haven't read it...

Anyway, this post isn't about promoting the book it's about sharing the news.


The news that...
I'm about to burst with excitement.


Why?

Pretty in Pink Dresser

Every once in a while I come across a piece of furniture that I love.  A piece that only lasts a couple of days in my garage because I'm so excited to get my hands on it.

This is one of those pieces.  I just love all of the lines and details this little dresser has.  She was in really bad shape though and it wasn't easy transforming her.

What's in my STASH?

Happy Friday the 13th!!!
I'm not superstitious are you?  :)

I'm sooooo looking forward to the weekend.
My worship team and I are going to do the Escape Room challenge tomorrow.  Have you heard of it?

10 Things You May Not Know About Me

I consider myself an open book so these aren't earth shattering but I thought it would be fun to share!

1.    I almost NEVER pay full price for anything!  I am a HUGE bargain shopper.  I LOVE Craigslist and most of the furniture in my home was purchased second hand or was given to me. 




Well, that isn't TRUE about every piece of furniture in my home....
I had a garage sale and sold a sectional and some other furniture and paid cash for the couches in my family room a few years ago.  I did pay full price for them and bought them brand new but I shopped around for months before purchasing them.
