  3. You know I am all about kids stuff these days. Wish my daughters room wasn't the size of a shoebox or I would snatch those headboards up with a quickness! sighhh I think I need an awesome vintage daybed.

    Now, don't I wish I have $1080 for those chairs!

    Tonight I'm painting furniture...wanna help? LOL Monday is a great day for thrifting! Maybe I can find that sideboard.

    Upholstery projects??? UGHH I have so many I could scream. I need to take a class or find a reasonable person to do them all. Suggestions?
