DIY Summer Begins!

Well, I've finally succumb to the peer pressure ( my mom) and started a blog. It's mostly for my friends to be updated on my projects I've put off because of school and my somewhat upcoming move to Portland.
I started by restoring an old bureau from the local thrift store. This will be the first time I've moved somewhere without furniture, and I thought I'd get a head start on preparations. Here are pictures of the process.















I got the knobs from a little store downtown. This nice old woman brings all these crafts back form Mexico. She's literally a warehouse of knowledge! I knew I wanted birds, and these were just perfect.
