i love new (old) furniture

nothing to do with the post

just a picture of how i'm making noah wear his undies

since he refuses to wear them the right way today

and...he's loving it

before

last night after the kids were in bed

i decided to take out the garbage

i know, very unlike me

what are husbands for?

and at the dumpster i found a dresser or two

i couldn't tell

i asked husband to come look at them with me 

we found two dressers in poor condition 

wet

and missing drawers

we left them and came inside

but i couldn't stop thinking about one of them

it needed work

and it was missing a drawer 

but if i don't love and care for it

who will?

it would just go to the landfill

and that would be the end of it's adventurous

apartment dwelling life

who better to take care of it than us? 

we love projects

so we decided to make it into a tv stand

we used part of the other dresser as a shelf inside

michael is quite handy

and just use the missing drawer as a space for our dvd player

and sanded it until we're ready to paint it

for now it has some old knobs on that we had lying around

but we're going to buy some new ones

and a fresh coat of paint, of course

i just can't decide what color to paint it

it'll have to go well with the new turquise 50's couch we're picking up tonight

more pictures on that later

yay
