As much as I haven't been amazing about bloggin, I actually have been getting things done. I am not sure how all those bloggers do it, manage a house, do just about everything themselves, and then blog about it? I really am pretty shaky at managing the house and bloggin- let's just say- not so much! Anyhow, I just finished up my daughter's new night stand. I actually purchased this a while back and at first I wanted to convert this to a new vanity in my bathroom. Since I purchased this on Craig's List I did not really look very closely at the peice- to my credit, the room was really cramped and dark. What I should have done is passed on the peice. It is a veneered peice of furniture- again with the darn veneers! Well I think I am starting to learn my lesson with this. I should have taken a pic before but I just got to work instead. I am kinda mad at myself for buying it. However, I did have a great spot for it, and it is providing much needed additional storage- albeit for my maternity clothes. It turned out pretty well and is better than the cheap old circular table you can buy at Wally World that I had covered with a table skirt.
My favorite part of the table is a vintage linen I scored at Goodwill. It was hand embroidered and is super cute. My Goodwill trip was a total score. I found this great set of Irish linen napkins with an amazing tone on tone art nouveau style. LOVE THEM! And at 49 cents a peice- they were a seriously good deal. Immaculate condition- I am sure they were someones "good" linens and were used like once a year!
