I never really could relate to the saying 'One man's garbage is another man's treasure' until my roomate and I took a trip to DI for fun. We were looking for a cheap TV stand to put in our living room when we saw this old coffee table. Well, it was only $10 so I decided it would be fun to try and fix it up! So I bought it. I took it to my brother Eric's house in Lehi and started sanding the table in their backyard, and soon found I wasn't the only one interested in fixing up this table. My nephew Ty thought it would be fun to help. Haha, well he pretty much took charge of the project and started telling me where to paint and what to do. I couldn't keep from laughing at Ty because he was so into it. When we were called inside for dinner, Ty said "I can't right now, I'm working." I don't think I would have enjoyed fixing up this table as much if I didnt have my little sidekick to help me! We had SOOO much fun, and we did a pretty good job for a first timer and a 4 year old! It was definently worth the $10!

i freakin love it! I absolutely love fixing up furniture and stuff from yard sales. You did a great job! and Ty is such a cutie. Miss you!
ReplyDeleteThanks for teaching Ty how to paint! Maybe I can put him to work at my house now:) The table turned out great!
