Taking some Taylored4Baby free time...


So after being so insanely busy getting ready for Allie's Attic, I decided to take a little time to craft for our family! I often find that I am either so busy sewing for Taylored4Baby, or if I am not, I feel like I should be. Not for the past few days! And it's actually crazy what I can get done when I let myself  :-)

Project 1:

Stain and varnish our bedside tables! We purchased these back in April last year, and I purchased the stain and varnish sooner after that. And that's as far as it went. So in just one day, I stained each table twice, and varnished them as well! I am SO SO SO happy, and of course wondering why I didn't do this over a year ago!

The colour doesn't match the bed, but that's okay. I really like the look of the dark wood, and it looks like real furniture now  :-)

Check out the before and after shots below... so much better right?



Even Miss Emily approves  :-)  And I managed to pretty much leave her unstained...


More projects to come... stay tuned!

  1. Well done! I've got a lot of loose ends here too. It feels soooo good when you get one tied up. The tables look fantastic!
