In reply to Superyalda. That's great! Would love to see pics if you send them along! I have a few more things here that need updating. Next up is a night stand perhaps...

You’ve just given me inspiration to update my old beat-up shoe-polishing step stool. I love it but keep it hidden because it’s embarrassingly ugly.

All I can say is WOW Ali! Fucking WOW!

I know art isn’t about making money but really dude you could get serious dough for pieces like this. I’ve seen this kind of refurbished furniture sell for a lot in small boutiques around town. It’s hard to believe the person who created this is a grants manager by day 🙂

The girl’s got talent!

In reply to Me too. Bring it on up in July and I can do something cool to it and then you can bring it back with you! That would be cool huh?

Beautiful, I have another old table here of Nan’s which your artistic mom has ruined but can’t seem to let it go! Maybe it will show up at your house one of these days. Or you can give me some Idea’s That is really cool that was my night stand in my bedroom @ Nan’s

In reply to Me.

Got any ugly furniture that needs a re-charge?! If you are willing to let me experiment that is! 😉

I do little bits at a time…when you turn your dining room into your art “studio” or rather, “disaster” you can get some things done! 🙂

Cool Beans Al… What a nice transformation. There was a woman who did this kind of thing out of the Stoughton Studio when I was there…I almost thought it was hers until I recognized the piece of furniture. Where are you finding all this Artsy Time?
