DIY Projects

It's been way too long since my last blog post. There's several more to come. Chet and I bought our first house in Kalispell and we've been remodeling it since October 3rd. Stay tuned for the crazy remodeling blog. Over the past couple months I've been re-staining furniture and working on things for the house. My Grandma gave Chet and I this awesome kitchen table and I re-stained it then put a coat of polyurethane to seal it. Now I need to find two kitchen chairs.

This dresser we got for free and I should have taken a before picture because the handles were so hideous looking but I removed the handles, stained it, put a coat of polyurethane over it and then put new handles that I bought at Lowes. Now it looks great for Tru's dresser/chaning table.

Lastly, I wanted something different as the main piece of decoration in our fmaily room and I remembered we had a pallet in our shop from when our countertops were delivered. So I got my stain out and stained the pallet and three pieces of leftover wood from our floors. Chet screwed in the wood floor pieces so there would be shelves for frames and such. It turned out great and I'm so happy with it. All of the staining I did with a heavy duty respirator mask so I'm not harming Truman inside my womb! :-)

Well there you go.....Three things refinished and it barely cost us anything.
