Our family celebrated a big event this weekend. My nephew joined the ranks of college graduates on Saturday. As many of us as possible were in Connecticut to watch him receive his degree. Congrats Bren!!
We trucked on up to Maine after the ceremony and in the back of the truck we were hauling an antique bed. Several years ago my aunt cleaned out her parents house and her parents bedroom set found its way down the street to my sister's home. She has been storing the bed frame in her basement for years. When, after first checking with my cousin, offered it to us, we jumped on it- not literally of course. My husband assembled it early this morning and it is perfect!
I love antiques and being able to pull this family piece out of storage and put it back in service makes me happy!
My bureau refinishing project is progressing. It's hard to make real progress when we're only here a day or two at a time. Today we sanded everything but the legs, and did some repair work on the top, and now we're fixing the interior so the drawers will slide smoothly. We picked out a stain and will probably attempt that next weekend after another round of sanding. I'm not gonna lie, the idea of staining makes me nervous but I think it'll go nicely with our new/old bed when all is said and done.
I think I figured this picture thing out!!
The Bruins have what appears to be a healthy lead in the 3rd period so I think I'm going to stop blogging and start watching. Have a great week everyone!
