Before & After

One of the goals we had when we moved, was that we would garage sale and thrift store shop to get some things that we would need for a new house.  With our old house being 1,000 square feet we didn't have room for a lot!  So here are a few of the things we have gotten and restored so far...
Old North End Garage Sale Find ($20)
 Boston has decided that he would like to have a cowboy room and he wanted a 
red dresser to go along with that!


Annie Sloan Emperor's Silk Chalk Paint (I can't say how much I love chalk paint!)


Now Jack, on the other hand, has asked for a hunting room.  "His own private room" :)  So we have been working on lots of camouflage things for that!


BEFORE I know I have already redone these but I found these awesome new dining room chairs that I have a new project lined up for so we redid one of these old ones for Jack.  I scored a new desk, hutch, and bookcase for him at the Woodmoor Garage Sale and we painted this chair to match those.
One of our old neighbors actually gave us this rocker when we were moving.  Jack thought that it looked like the one that Ben Cartwright reads his Bible in so he had to have it!  We redid it in camo as well.

 And then Pops brought these beauties up from his personal collection for Jack and Boss to add to their hunting and cowboy rooms.  The boys were pretty excited about them!
