Today I wanted to show you what I did with my Labor Day weekend (my parents were nice enough to take our daughter for the weekend so I could get some much need cleaning done). I wish I could say I accomplished more with my time...but...well, I mainly caught up on sleep.
But I did create a buffet for my dinning room out of a $10.00 thrift store dresser. My husband HATES it. I get that it's funky, shabby and won't be everyone's tasted but I LOVE it! I forgot to take a before picture but it was rough. It had a veneer top that was coming up everywhere so I thought it would be easy to rip up...I was WRONG! That my friends was a pain in the butt. I primed it, painted it, distressed it and Modge Podged the top using pages of a 1930's book I found at a garage sale for a quarter. I finished with a coat of poly.
Do you think it's ugly too? It's okay if you do. <3
I had so many pages left from the vintage book that I decided to make something out of some of them. I decided it would make an equally funky/shabby wreath. So here it is...
