I purchased this sweet old gal from a friend of mine who was in need of thinning out her stash of awesome furniture pieces. Yes, I can help! This old beauty was so pretty AND she came with an amazing mirror. SOLD. She did have damaged veneer and was missing quite a bit of it - it also had a fair amount of animal damage I suspected from an overly energetic and unsurprised puppy. After much … [Read more...]
I took a lovely drive through the Lancaster County, Pennsylvania countryside the other day to pick up two awesome dressers... it was a fabulous drive... Sometimes furniture pick ups are tough ;) I scored two amazing dressers... Despite almost an hour drive each way, it was totally worth the drive. I was excited to get started on the tall dresser and I knew just what I wanted to do. I … [Read more...]

I had a very busy day and ambitiously began three dressers today. I am partially finished on them all. Bah! I would have liked to finish one, but that's just how it goes. It didn't help that once the evening came,temps dropped quite a bit. My friend Megan and I were frozen. We thought we must be crazy. At least, that's what we thought the people were thinking as they drove by us while we … [Read more...]

I am always looking for great pieces for the Blessed Nest! I was quite excited when I spotted these:andI was instantly smitten.Imagine how I felt when I found out the price...of $25 each?Really? Can someone pinch … [Read more...]
I had picked up this dresser a few months back and had a vision for it from the get-go. Then it sat. I just wasn't married to my original idea. I wasn't feelin' it. So...finally I was bit by the inspiration bug last week (it just comes out of nowhere...I swear!) and my new vision was born. I had wanted to paint a dresser a dark navy blue for some time so this fit the bill. Here is the before … [Read more...]
Today was a busy day. As usual, I planned to accomplish too much and didn't finish it all, but overall today was very productive. My husband and his friend Sean were able to put up the remaining board and batten in our living room. I cannot express to you my excitement about that! I just need to paint it which unfortunately takes an eternity, but at least we are in process! Megan and I were … [Read more...]
