...Can't you just see its inner beauty and potential??...well I could...There were 3 available and I had planned to take two, however the second one would not fit in our car and only by millimeters!! Needless to say I was sad! But it wasn't meant to be, because now that she...yes a she, haven't picked a name yet though...is finished and sitting in our dinning room she makes a great statement on her own!
...after what felt like hours in the tropical heat peeling paint, I gave her some sexy legs from ikea and brightened her up with some colourful felt to make it softer on our bar ware. Luke and I are in LOVE with the finished results and can't stop making cute cocktails to sit on top! I think Luke is coming around to trusting my design ideas and my desire to make our place great for way cheap!!
I am so excited about all the other project plans fluttering around in my head now... plans for this weekend??? building our own dinning table out of wood I have found laying around!
Wow !!! Its fantastic ! Well Done !
