After conquering 6 years of bad taste our house is becoming a home and I love it! Garage sales, thrift stores and the Habitat restore have inspired me to upcycle things to become great again!
Success can only come after you make an effort to try....

In the Beginning
Today, I found an amazing tutorial on Freckled Laundry (http://www.freckledlaundry.com/) replicating Restoration Hardware's Zinc nightstand. Have you seen it? It is such an amazing conversation piece, but my conversation on it would strictly revolve around the price of the piece! It costs a small fortune! So, I will be following Jami's insturctions to make one of these pieces of my own! I can hardly wait to get started! This past Saturday, my amazing garage sale hunting sister led me down the path to the perfect piece! For a mere $10 I purchased a tabacco humidor antique table. The inside cabinet is lined with what is said to be copper, but my guess is that its tin to look like copper because the piece appears to be from the Depression era. We'll see what I can do with it! I can't wait to get started! Pictures of my table to come soon! Meanwhile, check out Restoration Hardware's piece priced at $1195.00
