Oh Oh - It's hereditary..............

My Daughter found this in the garbage outside her apartment building a couple of days ago -
And called me - here was the conversation.
Hi Mom, I found a a really cool piece of furniture and was wondering if you could do something with it.
What does it look like Lindsay?
Well it's round and it has a hole on the top to keep things in
A hole in the top, there must be a top piece missing Linds,
No, I think it was made that way and it has a really neat door, I've never seen anything like this, I think it's an antique.
Could you send me a photo of this piece honey?


LOL, here it is - it really is adorable but that hole is definitely not to toss things into - can't wait to fix it up for her - and cover that hole - before her cat decides to jump into it and call it home.  It most definitely is not a cathouse!

Have a great weekend everyone - it's almost going to be suntanning weather on Sunday!

Diamonds are a girls...................

After painting the windows black - this just didn't cut it anymore

This is what our T.V. sat on - and I cannot believe I have kept it like this for over 9 years -
This had 343,234,00 coats of paint on it when I got it ( 25.00 ) and I painstakingly got
rid of every coat - stripped and scraped and sanded until I got it down to the bare wood.
It's hard to believe looking at it now how proud I was of this, lol
Anyways John is away - and you know what comes next...................
I think he's going to be furious, I am systematically removing every piece of wood from the house,
Overkill?  That would be me.

those lion handles look a little drunk -
( haven't screwed them in place yet, lol ) 

The thing is now that I've done it - this does not go in the living room whatsover - soooooo,
I have switched it with one I had in the bedroom - and now am painting another dresser black
to fit in the living room - and all have to be finished before John returns tomorrow night and sees
what I've done - if it's finished and everything back in its place looking good than I am ok.
Following me still?
Because this is one confusing life I have created for myself,  lol
