Our first piece of furniture.

Last Tuesday, My lovely Husband and I decided we would look for some furniture. We were in desperate need of a dresser and some bed side tables. 

We scored this 3 piece set for $100 at a local resale store. 

Its all real wood. The drawers are on tracks and it had lots of space.

Great condition, ugly paint job.

BEFORE:

The Massive dresser.

End table. There are two of these. 

DURING:

-Stripping paint.

-Lots of paint stripping and sanding. By far my least favorite part.

side note: my husband is a beast.

-Staining. I had lots of fun with this step. 

Next we painted all the furniture a light grey, almost white, color. 

Then we destroyed it. 

AFTER:

We are so in love with these pieces. It's the first set of furniture we bought together.

Not only did we buy it together, but we refinished it together. It was a lot of work and a lot of fun. 

I love spending as much time as possible with my husband. 

He loves doing this kind of stuff. I am pretty sure he would do it for a living if he could. 

As a matter of fact he is working on our next project in the garage right now!

Maybe Mrs. Peach will share.

Until next time...
