~ Pink Antique Dresser ~

It's been a while since I've posted anything. The heat makes it hard to spend a lot of time in the garage, even with a swamp cooler. But, I managed to finish this cute little antique dresser, probably from the 1940's. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on the decade. I listed it last night and already have someone coming today to hopefully bring it home to their daughter.

The top was stripped and stained in dark walnut. Then I repaired and filled missing and lifting veneer.The color is 50/50 white and Valspar Delicate Pink Rose. After distressing and antiquing she got a topcoat and should be enjoyed for years to come!
I love the jewelry box on the top.


I'll be back to share another makeover soon!

Back to Reality

 Our 10 day vacation was absolutely wonderful, relaxing, and fun.

We spent half of it at Kevin's parents' home in Florida, where the kids enjoyed golf cart rides. I don't know why I don't have a better picture of this activity, but on this day they were getting tired of waiting to watch their Daddy go for a spin in GrampE's plane.

And might I add that Captain Jack Sparrow Disney knows how to make a cruise GREAT.

He was the food was yummy.

The kids had the most magical time with their 4 NJ cousins.

Saying goodbye to Jack Watching the kids say goodbye was heartbreaking.

It was the trip of a lifetime.

Now, I must get back to watching Pirates of the Caribbean reality.
