the furniture project | part one


we bought some furniture from salvation army.
the old dresser was from S's auntie.




the process though tiring but it was fun.


some of the furniture we have painted.
the stool is from ikea.
we bought the coffee table for $24!


while waiting for the paint to dry, we baked organic muffins. not a single bit of butter used. 


S didn't like it. he said the muffins were missing all the happy ingredients. haa..

more pictures of our project tomorrow!
