The Chest of Drawers

BEFORE


AFTER

The satisfaction I get out of completing these projects is unmeasurable.
I CANNOT stop.
It is way too much fun.
Bought a headboard today. ($10 smackaroonies)
Well, it's actually a base board thingy that goes under a mattress but I thought it looked like it could be a headboard and it happens to be the right size.
I'm going to cover it with fabric and screw it to the bed frame.
HAHA. It's going to be fabulous.
Now I just have to pick out some fabric...
... and strive to get something that's not black and white.
Doubt it.

That is so darn cute! You have seriously inspired me. I actually went to DI last weekend (2 in fact) and looked for a corner shelf for the top of my stairs. Thanks for being so inspirational!
