Dining set redone.

Wow...what a busy January. 

This is my first post this year and for those that follow me, I'm so sorry it's taken this long to get back in the saddle. 

We had a fabulous vacation in Belize. I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves adventure.

Here are just a couple of pictures of our time away. 

 This is our view from our room each day we were there.

 I could have easily lived in my bathing suit. It took a total of about 5 min for us to get relaxed after arriving :)

 There are a LOT of ruins there, and we only saw a couple of them. We will have to go back for that reason alone ;)

 Tired, relaxed and ready to go home

Goodbye Belize....till next time :) 

Ok...so on to the reason you are really here. Furniture :) 

I've done so many things since coming home and can't possibly cover them all. But I did want to share with you one of my biggest projects. 

I can't seem to find any of the "before" pics on my computer. I know I took them and I know I uploaded and edited them. I just can't find the dang things. 

So you will have to live with the after pics. 

 Try if you will to imagine this piece covered in both gold and green velvet, ripped and dirty from years of misuse.

 Chipped and ugly.

 Can't imagine it?

 I can't either anymore.

 This set is now ready for it's new home.

Just look at those detailed corners. I'm in love and was seriously eying it up for my own home. Silly me..lol
