My neighbor rescued this old beauty from the curb and brought it to me. It was pretty enough as-is but what fun would that be?

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I posted a furniture project! I named this on Dolly since she's so curvy on top 😉 She was headed for the dump when one of my rescuers snatched her up and brought her to me. A mere 10,000 hours of work later, here she is!

Every once in a while I get a piece of furniture that seems to resist my attempts to beautify it. This ungrateful old sewing table was one of those pieces! Many hours and dollars later I finally convinced her she wanted a new life. 🙌

My favorite kind of furniture flip is the curb-shopped items that are headed to the dump. It's so fun to transform them with a little work and some paint. Now Marvin can be a useful piece of furniture again!

The Wedding Doors
I would like to give a big shout-out to Tim, my brother, my buddy. Without him, this furniture painting hobby would not be possible. He is the muscle, the repair guy, the builder, the hauler, and sometimes the voice of reason, that I need to make all of this happen! He has dropped everything at a moment’s notice on more than one occasion to run out and pick up a hot piece of furniture I found on Marketplace! I appreciate him so much and value his opinion, advice, and expertise on my projects. Thank you, Tim, for all your help and for just being a great brother in general! Dad would be so proud of you! ❤️
When Hannah asked me to make her some "first-look" doors for her wedding ceremony I said yes knowing Tim would be the one stuck with the task of building the frame for the doors. My friend Merl found this pair of vintage doors which he generously donated to the project so thank you Merl Jones!
