I am totally obsessed with my “new” furniture. It is so pretty. it has just the right amount of distressing and it has brightened up the entire room. The furniture before was pretty, but it was dark, and I really wanted to lighten it up and this made all the difference.
I just keep telling myself, he is lucky to have someone that cares so much about his home, that they want to keep it beautiful. He is so lucky, right? Yes, I believe he is.
I promise guys, these types of projects really aren’t that bad! This project took me about a day and a half start to finish, and I neglected to tell you we had a full day of birthday parties in between. Really, I only worked on it at night once the kids were under control. I promise, it is doable! Having your husband gone is a bonus though, because then you wont have anyone to harass you about it.
This would be a really great idea to use on cheap reclaimed furniture, or something that you have grown tired of, like I did. Check out those garage sales or thrift stores. You are sure to find a piece of furniture that will look amazing painted and distressed.
