Ever hear the old adage " the Cobblers children go unshod" - or in a more modern version " the Plumbers wife always has a leaky faucet" - BASICALLY - we tend to accomplish things for others more often than we do for ourselves; CASE IN POINT: April 2012 the blog entry titled "Ladies in Waiting ". We purchased these lovely side tables. My original thoughts were to restore them, keep one for ourselves and auction or consign the other. They both made it to the disassembly and stripping stage; one made it to the sanding and finish sanding stage. The other lay in parts nicely arranged on the work table. Throughout the year other projects scootched them farther and farther toward the back tables in the Barn.
(no pun intended) humidity free (and for the summer of 2013 - that was saying something) and while other projects were in holding stages waiting for one thing or another - a' moitie' fini'. The first stain was applied, then the second, and by evenings approach - "fini". Take a look and dust off the memory - or for convenience sake - just flip back through the blogs.
But isn't she just lovely !
