While I readily admit I've been a lazy slacker blogger lately, I do have a few good reasons. Not the least of which involve these guys---
I've been busy with yard sales, flea markets, and projects--lots and lots of projects. Mind if I share a few?
Remember this:
It now looks like this:
Found this cool little "trading post" outside Nashville--I'll blog about that later--it's a post in itself. I got this handmade table for $10. Used Restore-A-Finish on it and it got snapped up quickly at my booth.
Another $10 table that benefited from R-A-F. Also sold!
This table was also $10. Notice a trend here? It's the largest in a set of three nesting tables. Mid-century resin and stamped Florence Italy on the bottom. The legs need some attention, but will be going to my booth next week.
Vanity/desk/sofa table? You decide. Guess how much? Yep, $10. I had thought I'd strip the top and stain it, then paint the bottom. After much sanding, what did I find? Not real wood, that's for sure. Still plan on painting the bottom black and using some old sheet music to decoupage the top. Speaking of the sheet music--I got a huge boxful for $40. Some of the same pieces are selling on eBay for $5-$15!
And that's just the tip of the iceberg. Some things I was too anxious to get started on and forgot to take before pictures. Am I forgiven for being so lax in posting lately?

Of course you are forgiven! If I had precious grands and was as creative as you- I'd be doing the same thing!
