What I have been up to...

I haven't blogged in a while but that doesn't mean that I haven't thought about it from time to time.  It has been a while since I posted a few of the projects that I have been working on.  Here is what one of our dressers looked like in January.
 

Not in bad shape at all...but I am still working on updating this bedroom set to black.

The yellow rose will soon be vanished and replaced with what I have imagined for sometime now.

The handles weren't bad for their day, and they have served many years...but I personally think that they are a little too ornate for my tase.

After a month (ok, maybe 2 months) I have finally finished and am so so so pleased with the end result.  I think the only thing I would change about the end is the fact that know I know about wood putty and that it would hide a few holes that I patched.  Oh, well...when I found out I only had one more coat of paint to go.

Now, if I can just find the time to finish the last dresser and the mirror that sits on top of it, I will have successfully finished the entire set!!  Can't wait for that day.  Maybe in another year I will have it all completed.  Until then, on to my next project.
