What is this?
Does anyone know what this was originally supposed to be? I thought maybe it was a plant stand, but the hook doesn't really stick out far enough to accomodate a hanging pot/basket. It's also kind of...

Bedside table with a new face!
This is a little table that someone gave me for free. It was in need of a freshcoat of white paint, so I gave it one and then thought it needed just a little something extra, too! I painted this for...

Little Chippy Foot Stool
I picked this old foot stool up at a yard sale for a buck and couldn't wait to get home and recover it. I LOVE recovering things, as it makes a worled of difference to the look of the piece!

Dahlia photo frame

I had a desk IDENTICAL to this that I got from in front of someone's house on trash day. I very stupidly traded it for some cushions to make an overstuffed chair for my son and I haven't the SLIGHTEST clue how to make the chair and don't know that I ever will. I really wish I would have just kept the desk, especially when I see stuff like this! It's fabulous. If I ever get my hands on another desk, I am doing this with it.

Very cool, I need one of those!Although, I'd never keep my kids (who are 4 & 5) out of my cookbooks if they were that low! My mom has that same old cookbook on the top left, too! I remember it well growing up... she hasn't handed it down to me yet, like some of her others! hehe!

Thanks so much gals!! I think I will just clean them up (no sanding or stripping) and use several coats of clear sealer. Since they will be up on the wall, hopefully they will pose no threat to the children. I really appreciate all of the advice. Judi, I will definitely keep the Multi-Strip in mind for future projects... I have an old table I need to strip. By the way, love your blog!!
