My First Furniture Experience

Last summer...when it started.

My first round at the rodeo was with my master bedroom dresser and two nightstands. I randomly decided last year that I wanted them to be turquoise and much to my surprise Spencer was completely okay with the idea! 

Mind you I didn't want to spend a lot of money so I did it the old fashioned way and sanded every last bit of the old finish off of each piece. (NOT recommended ..) Yikes what a job! 

Ps: thank the good Lord for Cece's. What a welcomed surprise when I eventually popped the top off of one of those glorious cans of joy!

Here are a few pics of the process:




Let the sanding begin... err, not.


Notice  the two old doors behind it that I was working on to use for headboards..I will post about that as well! :)
