I ran into some really great furniture pieces this month and I couldn't wait to get them painted and set up for the Room sale, which starts Thursday night. We are supposed to be set up by Tuesday, so I moved everything in, including this small buffet - here it is in it's "before" state. I was thinking I was in great shape this month I had a full space and 2 backup pieces, plus another that I could paint if I had to.
So I fluffed and primed, hung pictures and staged until I was happy with how it looked. Have I said this business is a lot of work? Well, it is sometimes a ton of work. But fun, and I'm always happy to see the finished project.
I drove home, tired, but thinking I could relax for the next few days and work on small, fun projects. I won't go into the details of how this happened, but both the night stands from my previous blog and the small buffet with the french stencil shown here have been sold, along with the mirror above the buffet, the lamp and a few smaller pieces. Now, I'm not complaining, a sale is a sale, but at this point I was kind of tired of painting and I was really happy with my display, so I did have mixed feelings. Like I said, it's all a lot of work.
Today I was feeling better about everything and I was able to finish the last piece of furniture and get it and another loaded into the car, ready to restage my space tomorrow. It went so well I had time to do a few fun projects and I did get a chance for a short thrift store outing with my friend and fellow Roomie, Linda. I"ll post pictures again, once I re-stage
