Finally!!!
After much waiting (which I am so NOT good at) for my supplies to arrive and then finally getting the sun to come out long enough to get a decent photo, I am able to complete and post this project. It turned out just like the picture in my head and that's always a good thing! The table was in a sorry state but very sturdy---the same could not be said of the chairs. They truly were meant for the dumpster. They needed a lot more love but the result, I think is charming
So, at long last.....the finished set
What do you think? Game table?

Breakfast table? Maybe for a Sunroom or a screened porch? Can't decide---all I know is I like it!

In The Meantime......
You know, even the BEST intentions can't make the postal system any faster, so while I have been waiting...and waiting...and waiting, for some much needed supplies to complete my previous project, I picked up these amazing frames at the flea market and the next thing I knew, I had these oh so cute chalkboards. So. Fun.

I'm Still Here!!!! Back At It...
So, after way too much summer traveling and way too much time away from my sand paper and paint brushes, I'm back in my paint splattered work clothes and pony tail and happily working on a new project with my faithful collie buddies snoozing to the sounds of my drill and staple gun. A few weeks ago, I happened by my daughters house as she was getting ready to haul some "junk" away for her landlord. After all my years of dumpster diving, the dumpster came to me and I rescued a few treasures right then and there. So, I'm working on some great stuff and should have a complete post next week.
In the meantime, see if you can guess what the pictures below have to do with each other...
