Chest Turned Coffee Table / Signs

Back a few months ago I 
posted a pic of the chest 
that mom picked up somewhere
in the 70's. She painted it
the cream color and dry brushed
a gold in it....

I decided that it would be
great as my coffee table.
I started by priming it 
and painting it antique white.

Then work stopped.

However a couple of weeks
ago I cut the wood for 
the top. And then again,
work stopped.

Today, I did however
stain the wood then I 
nailed in place. Next
will be seal it and it is done.

For sometime now I have
been wanting a welcome
sign so I cut the wood
for it at the same time
I did the top of the 
coffee table. Then I stained
it the other day, and played
with my paints.

Finished piece.

Within 30 mins of posting
on FB I had someone wanting
to order one. haha
a thought that I never even
thought of. 

However I decide to make
some HOME ones that are
shorter then the WELCOME
ones. The boards were cut
already.

up then offer them for sale.

The Rest of Today

Image
After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done.

I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
