Trash to Treasure

Before AfterI can't seem to drop Merit off at kindergarten and get back home without stopping at a thrift store. My three favorite things to look at: furniture, books and linens. Willem is an official junkstore junkie. :) A few months ago, Liz and I were thrifting and I found this table. This is the only "before" pic I got of this little treasure...Merit's pose is quite comical, but that's Merit.
And the after....I am crazy about it. A fun addition to our dining room.
I just registered for three college courses... education classes to keep my teaching certificate current. My trash to treasure projects and card making may be on hold for a while...
