Technical Difficulties

I've been unable to upload pictures for almost a week now, and have not been able to figure out the problem. I discovered a new way to upload pictures, but it only allows for one per post.

Needless to say, this is frustrating. Until this is resolved here is a sneak peak of one of the many things I've been trying to share.



 

Do you love him as much as I do?! The garden stool was a rare craigslist score for me, and for a great price.
I'll do a full post on this guy (or girl according to my daughter) when I get things running smooth again,
as well as my Monday series on frugal outfits.


Don't forget about me, I'm hoping this will all be worked out soon!

Craigslist Buffet

I don't purchase furntiure off of craigslist too often, but I have gotten lucky a few times.

 My very first craigslist purchase was this solid wood buffet that I got from a nice, young family that had just moved to the area.

BEFORE

They told me they bought it from a used furniture store when they lived in Michigan; so this piece has had many lives.

Because the top had so much wear to it already, it was the perfect canidate for re-staining. I chose an ivory colored paint for the bottom and painted the original hardware.

Here is how it came out:

AFTER

A different nice, young family bought this to use in their nursery with a changing table on top. I loved that idea!

Thanks for stopping by!
