Nursery Dresser

I was going to wait till we had the whole nursery complete to do a grand reveal....lets just be honest that the nursery will very likely never get finished. And if this little girl ever does happen to ask if she had a beautiful nursery, I will tell her it was perfect and finished...and expensive, just for her. None of which are true. :) But I did want to post pictures of the dresser that Kallam and I have been sanding for the past 6 months. Why did it take 6 months you should ask? Because we were sanding it 10 mins at a time, because that's all our arms could manage doing it by hand. It probably would've taken an hour if we had just sucked it up and bought an electric sander. Someone said it was going in their trash but I could see so much potential that I managed to talk Kallam into a joint project. He's been cursing my name ever since. But now that its stained and beautiful I think he's actually sort of glad that we did it.

Before...

After!!!

  3. very nice. I'm impressed. I'm glad you're not buying into all the commercialism surrounding "the Perfect Baby Nursery". Perfect is a bad word anyhow....
