Last week I told you that Emma and I were taking the week off to work on some projects.
Emma and I were very busy...
Turns out, 'projects' post baby are a lot harder to get finished than the wide open days of old.
I promised that I would share the projects I worked on this week. Well, it's Friday... any my projects are still works in progress. I'm a keeper of my word, so here are the projects I've been working on - and I'm still working on.
The Mini Me Wingback Chair I'm making a slipcover for... it is actually almost done.
I'll be putting the finishing touches on it today... maybe.
I told you Mike was building me a bed.
Isn't it pretty?!
I'm refinishing our dresser. This is mid strip.
This is post-strip, pre-sanding.
Check back next week for a real update on these projects!
Yep, babies have a way of interrupting plans. And I hate to tell you, but it doesn't get a whole lot better even when they're 17!I am loving what you are doing with the chair. The bed looks like it is going to be beautiful. I think Emma has the right idea about what we should all be doing the summer, though.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you got that many big things even near-finished in a week! Nice work!! Can't wait to see them all in their completed glory :)
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see these projects finished, especially the chair. You've given me a great idea. I hope I can pull it off as well as you, somehow I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteLots of projects going on...can't wait to see them finished!! Enjoy your weekend ~
ReplyDeleteEmma is your best work in progress, your other projects are pretty nice too!! :-)
