I found this bench at the thrift store for $5. Can you believe that?? I thought it was so adorable, but my husband, ummm notsomuch. He seriously wanted to put it by the curb for trash pick up. Shame on him! And I’m sorry, this has to probably be one of the worst “before” photos [...]

Painted Nightstands

Part of the master bedroom redo involved updating these nightstands. These are actually living room end tables, but we use them as our nightstands. They serve their purpose, they are pretty (now they are), and they were free! I’ve actually had them many years. They came with my furniture set my mom bought for me [...]
