Furniture Makeover!

Look at this pretty little thing!  I kind of wondered how old it is.  It doesn't

appear to be very old but I've never seen anything like it before.

I decided to look for a piece at the local thrift shop.  Found this and

actually left the store without it.  But after some longing to find the piece I

so badly wanted I went back and got it.

It will go under the window in my daughters room.  I plan to make a seat for the top.

She was with me when I found it and I could tell she just didn't

have the vision I have for seeing what it could be. haha

I thought I'd share.  I love to take something not so pretty and make something wonderful

from it.

It is a child's chest.  I loved the chess/checkers game top.

I had started to sand it already when I decided to take some photos.

Caitlin's room has Teal, Black and White in it.  She was very particular

when she chose the colors.  So I decided this would look great

black with a nice white/teal seat.  I plan to buy some fabric and foam to make the seat with.

I think Caitlin was shocked when she saw it.  She wasn't impressed when I bought it.

haha  I will share more pics when I get the materials for the seat.

I can't wait!
