Awesome! Nicely done and I love the drawer pulls! Redoing things takes more time than buying something new, but I bet you’ll appreciate that piece forever. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks! I was originally going to paint the dresser but am now thinking I will leave it and see if it grows on me! Can’t wait to get it into the house.

LOVE the Christmas stuff!!! I adore bottlebrush trees and those glass balls are beautiful! I also like the new/old cabinet! Are you gonna paint it or leave it as is?

Comment on home security that won’t break your budget by Rebecca

I just have to say that my police officer husband says that alarms are good for alerting people to find you (after the fact) , not protect you. Most of the time it is impossible for anyone to get there fast enough to prevent something. If you just want to be alerted to the fact that someone is opening your door or window, there are things you can buy that do not require a subscription with an alarm company. Also, many alarm companies send unarmed security to respond to alarms, so what good is that? Just make sure you understand the exact process of what your alarm company will follow if you have an emergency so you aren’t expecting too much.

I used fabric paint…yes, it is washable and yes, they have stood up wonderfully through several washings!

What “ink” did you use to stamp them? Is it washable? Have they stood up when you washed them?
