Our Latest & Greatest Project...

A couple of weekends ago, I got a wild hair and decided I was ready to re-do our dining room. It's the one last room we had to "finish" or complete in our house to bring up-to-date. My table and chairs were hand-me-downs which have served us great, but I was finally ready to have something of my own. We have a great china cabinet that Jarrod's parents had given us, but it's been very difficult to "match" it up with a table and chairs. So, after a couple of days of trying to find a dining room table that matched, we kinda stumpled upon Wood You furniture store which has unfinished furniture that you stain yourself. It's pretty reasonable and we found something that was perfect for what we needed. Better yet, they were able to find a stain that was pretty close to the same color as our china cabinet. The only problem...Jarrod and I had never stained furniture before and we had NO IDEA what a project it would turn into. After MANY long days and late nights, we are FINISHED! I'm pleased with how it turned out, but I'll probably never do it again!! HA!
