Before and After

It's amazing what a little time and a can of paint can do...
 This lovely etched mirror recently got a new life,
as a chalkboard for organizing our meals.

This desk, which believe it or not started out even more 70's looking than the picture here shows...


became this fun little laptop desk.

 with some of my favorite fabric as drawer lining.

And this coffee table... (which I can't rotate the picture for, bah!)
 Got some fun color!


Finding old furniture has become a family affair with Peter and the boys helping out. I love how excited the boys get about finding something to remake and how they love to be a part of the process.  Leif is especially into helping work on and find new pieces, which makes me smile.  It's such a neat thing to be able to share what you love with your kids and see them respond with enthusiasm!
