I bought these for $3 and they’re still looking good 13 days later.

This was back in the day before I even knew what a blog was or that other people did this too!I really wanted a console table for behind the sofa, so Chris put this one together for me for about $40.

If anyone’s interested in a tutorial on this one, let me know!.Well, it’s seen better days, but I’m still not quite ready to get rid of it.But I thought a paint job was in order.

In fact, one day I suddenly found myself really really wanting to paint it and nothing could be done to stop me!It was about 9:30 pm on a Saturday night and this.

It was such a great, quick project to do because I really only had to paint part of it to get the look I wanted.. Bam!

What an update right?So does my camera apparently.

Or at least it did the other day when I was trying to get these photos of my new giant cast iron hooks..This is the way I like this front hall we’ve been working on best anyway.

All dark and shadowy with the grey Fall light coming in through the window.. We finally got around to getting a bit more progress in the front hall, which is good, because now we’ve got another big BIG project started up that I can’t wait to show you.A couple of them actually.. Wahoo!
