What I’m Working on Right Now

Hello everyone after my last post showing what a mess I have I thought I would share a couple of things I am working on now. I’m hoping to finish a few things and make room, but to do that I’d have to quit buying new pieces.  Sigh, I bought something today. My own daughter just told me this evening that I need an intervention! Oh well, as long as I’m getting rid of some of it I guess I’m okay.

First, is this very large coffee table I picked up at a resale shop.

At one time it had a really pretty blonde finish but not now.  Pretty sad huh?

I can not wait for you to see what I do with it! I’m planning  something different than anything I have done so far.

Then there is the Drexel buffet I have been talking about. I have been waiting for some paint to come in so I could finish it this is a great, quality, piece of furniture.

But it is kind of boring to me you don’t even see the great details on the doors with this finish, but don’t worry I’m taking care of that.  I think you will like it.

And the last piece I am working on right now is this bench.

I love the legs and the raised panels across the base.  I plan on adding a cushion to this and can not wait to get started on it.
Oh, if you look closely that is my grandson hamming it up for the camera. lol I did not even know he was there the little sneak. He is six by the way.

Hope you enjoyed this sneak preview.  Happy painting and Happy Thanksgiving.

What A Mess & Gift Card Winner

Hello everyone I thought I would be totally honest today and share what a real mess I have since I started getting serious about selling painted furniture.

I do not have the most beautiful home in bloggerette land with everything magazine ready at all times.  Since I do not have a shop or a basement to work in I have been working on my kitchen island and outside on my carport.

Lately working on the carport has been a problem because it looks like this.

Completely covered in furniture waiting to be refinished.

Hey there’s that Drexel buffet! I’ve been looking for that! lol Actually I am working on it now and it will be ready to share soon.

Sigh so much fun awaiting and so little time because you see this is fun for me. I totally enjoy what I do its just the mess I get totally stressed out about and I really worry about someone calling the “Hoarder” show and putting me on it!

Here’s my lovely craft room uh, or it used to be lovely.  I was so proud when my son moved out and I could finally have my own craft room.

I know, I know, your horrified aren’t you.  Well, I do plan in the next few days to get in there and do something with it let’s just hope I don’t get lost and my husband have to send out a search party!

I just wanted to share with those of you out there that are trying to do the same thing I am doing or something similar and let you know you will have chaos. Everything is not perfect behind the scenes of those popular blogs (it can’t be can it?) they have a mess also they just are not sharing.

Well its back to work for me but before I go here is the winner of the Wal Mart gift card.
