August 16
FINALLY! The guest room is taking shape! I spent the morning putting everything together. Surprisingly, the mirror on the vanity was nice, and didn't decided to jump off the ledge, and into my head. I managed to screw the mirror onto the vanity all by myself.
I set up the bed. No. NOT a Steelers fan (but my Love is. I forgive him.). I needed something to cover up the mattress while I find fabric to make a quilt/accessories. I felt so accomplished, I think I laid on the bed for a good 45 minutes admiring my work, and texting pics to various friends.
I moved 80% of the fabric stash up into the craft room. It's all sorted out by type/purpose. Cotton, Corduroy, Knits, Canvas, Fleece, Velvet, and "misc". All the crap that doesn't fit into one of the other categories.
I moved onto this little dresser, up in the craft room. This thing was anything but cute, but I was determined to breathe some new life into it. It's metal, so I'm digging the fact I can stick magnets into it. It went from faux wood grain to black, and Tiffany Blue stripped fabric covered.
It took a TON of time to do this little thing. All kinds of time spend on painting, and trying not to burn myself on the glue gun I used to attach the fabric. I also switched out the knobs on it.
I then painted the frame for the tack/dry erase board, and called it a night.
