I Loves me some New Furniture!!

On Christmas Day, while preparing for Christmas dinner, Kameron and our neighbor Tim was opening up our old table to add the leaf...when their muscles got the best of the table. haha. It really was an old table and I think we were it's 3rd home. It served us good for 5 years, but it gave us the opportunity to get a new one. Yeah!!
Isnt she a beaut?! Kameron was so thrilled because he hated...I mean HATED the old table, he said it was an eye sore compared to the rest of our furniture. Welcome baby black to the Lee home!!

A couple weeks ago I was on the hunt for a dresser for Anastyn's room, and a lovely girl in my ward said she had a twin bedroom set she no longer wanted. So as sweet as she was she said the fee for it was to just get it OUT! So big thanks to Todd, he let us borrow him and his truck to pick them up!! It took two days, and $45 worth of supplies, and we gave this little bedroom set a face lift!! And I cant even tell you how much I ABSOLUTELY LOOOOVE how it turned out!! Here's the before and after shots:
Before -(the picture she sent me to see if I wanted them) I totally forgot to take my own befores.

After!! Dont you seriously want to gaze into that mirror while saying "Mirror Mirror, on the wall?"


I worked my magic and did a little distressing!! Thats right, I used an ELECTRIC sander! Feel free to be impressed, I know I was pretty dang proud of myself!


The before nightstand...


The after, is this not the perfect little girl's bedroom set?!!!


Before headboard...


After. Now I just need the box spring and matress and we have ourselves a brand new (to us) bedroom set. Thank Paula for the furniture, you rock!! And big thanks to my sweetie who with the most positive attitude helped me take on this project full force!!! (insert sarcasm here!) Seriously though, he is such a good sport to help me with my crazy ideas. Anywho...Yeah for new furniture!!!!!
