PROJECTS

(four layers of paint later...........i am so tired of stripping the paint off of this thing!!)


so i have been on a project bender lately. it seems to come in waves. i go go go, and do do do all these projects and then i just hit a wall and want nothing more to do with them. i started all these projects like refinishing our piano, refinishing this antique dresser i picked up off of KSL, and now sewing. i'm going to be making slipcovers for my wing chairs, and i'm almost finished with another sewing project that i was up until midnight working on last night. but i have decided that i AM going to finish what i started. i will finish the piano. i am setting a goal right now, by the end of november it will be done. because lets face it once december hits i'm not doing any of these things, christmas just takes up to much time and energy. any suggestions on what color to finish the piano? i'm thinking white?



i'm thinking blue for this dresser. probably navy blue to go in parker's room, with nice new nobs. its almost done being sanded!! finally.

I am LOVING the piano like that. *snicker*

Seriously. Sand it down so it's smooth, with the blue leaded paint still showing through, and seal it. :)

Or paint it white. That would be pretty, too. :)

After the holidays, wanna come and visit and show me how to re-do Ryan's grandma's antique sewing table??? It needs some TLC but I don't know where to start.. :)
