Upcoming projects

Hey all! Stay tuned for some before/afters. This week I've got an outdoor patio/bistro set I'm painting for a friend. The month of November will bring me three commission pieces...an armoire, buffet, and a side table. All of them will be done in Annie Sloan Chalk Paint with the wax finish. It'll be my first time working with ASCP, so wish me luck!

In other news, we've withdrawn our offer on the house. After 5 months of waiting and Freddie Mac continuing to claim they don't have the paperwork that has been resubmitted time and time again, we're frustrated and frankly ready to be done with the whole thing. After getting our hopes up on yet another short sale (this is the second short sale we've made an offer on), we've vowed to never offer on another one. Unfortunately, most houses in our price range are short sales. So we'll make due with our teensy apartment for a while longer. I've got some ideas for creative storage and lots of plans for redecorating and reorganizing. More on that later!
