my birthday settee

before. I kinda like the wood now that I see it in the picture, but up close it was not so cute.

In my living room, all painted white. It wasn't as hard as I thought and Danny and I had a lot of fun working on it together. p.s. The coffee table was a $10 yard sale find. Sa-weeeet!

He loves it. This is his new "trick." I'll say, "where's your pillow? Go nite-nite!" And he will lay down and pretend to go to sleep. =) It's so cute! He usually just does it when there is a pillow around, but he's starting to do it anywhere. Don't worry. He doesn't really have a pillow when he goes to bed. 

I can't wait to haul this baby downtown for some pictures.....

  8. OH MY HECK jess I am not kidding my mom picked up 2 matching arm chairs that match that settee at an estate sale, she didn't pay a dime for them because they had just shut down the sale and had to get rid of everything. How did you paint the brown part white? Hm... email me about it!
