More Befores than Afters

JWS came home from the auction last night with this. 

I love these chairs, they are so comfortable

and fun! 

They almost remind me of when people

actually sat around outside 

and 

make me want to take the time to do that! 

The paint is a little rough, 

but the chair is is great shape. 

A little sanding and some spray paint

and 

I will be sitting. 

He also brought this to me. 

The chair and the basket. 

Some chalk paint

and 

the material below

(that he also brought home)

and it should be a treasure! 

And one before...

that has an after

and 

just in the nick of time. 

This horse was in this shape

when my friend asked when she could pick it up

on Monday night. 

She knows me and how I work,

but I was still afraid to tell her that I had not started it! 

This morning it is done 

and 

ready to be

given to a lucky couple 

expecting their first baby!  

It has been a hectic week, 

VBS backdrop,

the horse,

1024 fish ready for the 

Great Fish Installation 

at the church tomorrow,

work,

and 

painting the new addition at work.

Everything has fallen into place though

and 

I am thankful for that

and 

now....

off to some yard sales before I go to work!   

How many more "befores" do I need?
