I demand a do-over!

I thought for sure 2011 was going to be good to Andy and I, apparently I was completely wrong. As most of you know, my car was totaled about 2 weeks ago from a tow-gone-wrong and yesterday our basement flooded! So in light of these occurrences, I demand a year do over. We are only 2 months in so I'm thinking it shouldn't be that hard to arrange, so what government office should I start calling constantly? Homeland Security? The White House?
Andy vacuuming up the last of the water last night. Demo Complete.
Anyway, I'm done complaining. Back to the reason you are probably here... PROJECT WEEK! I had to take most of yesterday off to deal with the basement disaster but I did get a few things done. I have 4 of my 6 chairs primed and ready to be painted, the dresser frame is primed, and I am on the very last drawer front. So I decided to show everyone why these darn drawers are taking so long... Here is the reason...


Double punch outs!

So each one of those bad boys has to be painted with a tiny brush by hand. It's killer but so worth it! Don't you love the 1970's wood grain going on here? Lovely! Here are a few more pics...

One finished next to an original.

Two finished drawers. I just have to put the paper in behind the cut outs and they are done!

       Have a great day!
