Baskets and boxes are what we use a lot of right now but we're running out of places to put them!

I mean, it just looks so great. One of my best friends has that vision too, and she makes money re-doing people's old furniture. Her work is amazing, just like this. I love everything on her shelf, and that drawing is pretty cool!<br /><br Nicollehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02144472105892524890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-483633839255984734.post-69986831792021182642012-05-18T07:46:17.228-04:002012-05-18T07:46:17.228-04:00Kim, that looks fabulous!!

Then we paint painted it the green color. <br /><br />If there had been a spray paint in the exact color I wanted I would have used spray paint but I wanted this exact color b/c it worked with the bedding in her room.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01648861548786258875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-483633839255984734.post-75833965553610828132012-05-15T20:56:00.968-04:002012-05-15T20:56:00.968-04:00I love the vision and the finished product!
