life and puppies

This past weekend was so beautiful, I decided the only logical way to honor it was by painting this piece of furniture:

See it there? Behind Bear’s Learning Tower or whatever it’s called? Under the fireplace? In front of the windows? Yeah, there’s a little too much going on there. Here it is, outside:

You see, it’s a dark green. Which basically goes with nothing in our house. Nor do I want it to. So, I decided that it needed to be changed. Off came the drawers.

And then AO attempted to sand it.

But that really didn’t work at all. So, I just primed it.

And spray painted the drawer fronts.

And painted the rest of it white.

Well, not all of it. I didn’t think it was necessary to paint the inside of the drawers. Geesh.

And spray painting the pulls was a little nerve-racking, but I think it was ultimately a good idea. Even if I’m going to need to go over them one more time. Voila!

Back in place.

Phoebe loves it.
