I'm staring to open my two small boxes worth of Christmas decor and it delights me a lot!<br /><br />We have our 6-foot artificial Christmas tree set up already. All I have to do now is deck it up (with balls and holly!).<br /><br />There have been so many projects I have piling up. Looking back at the past few months I've wasted, I realize that it kept piling up because I kept buying stuff for crafts yet I have no motivation whatsoever to do something with it. All the ideas are just in my head.<br /><br />Now, I'm trying to kick that wallowing feeling of depression. It's not worth it.<br /><br />There's so much to be thankful for! There's a lot of good things going around that I shouldn't focus on things that are not meant to happen yet.<br /><br />I know that The Man up there is orchestrating all of these and He has his mighty reason. All I have to do is surrender and believe.<br /><br />That being said, I begin to tackle the project that has been sitting in the garage since Summer of this year. Yep, I told you no motivation!<br /><br />I saw some good sites online that inspired me to refinish my dresser. This dresser was a garage sale find for $50. It's all wood and is old school. Anyway, I decided that I want to stain it Mahogany to match up with our bed.<br /><br />Finally, we (meaning D and I) are able to get to it. Sand it, stain it and now, D's putting the new knobs on it.<br /><br />I wish I have the before photos... But here's what it the drawers look like for now.<br /><br /><br /><br /><center><img src="http://i48.tinypic.com/309rlth.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i42.tinypic.com/2hqfguu.png" width="80px" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6211411111476733173-1404346854034555355?l=aprilitis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12121135425341650971noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211411111476733173.post-1173360512371501082009-11-30T19:06:00.001-08:002009-12-01T21:05:59.392-08:00<center></center><center></center><center><img src="http://i48.tinypic.com/29lxyzl.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><center><br /><img src="http://i49.tinypic.com/30ro7wy.jpg" /></center><br /><br /><br />It's a Medium Joy Boston Bag.<br />My very first Gucci purse.<br /><br />What makes this purse <strike>less guilt-inducing</strike> great is that certain portion of the cost goes to UNICEF.<br /><br />Isn't she lovely?<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i42.tinypic.com/2hqfguu.png" width="80" /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6211411111476733173-117336051237150108?l=aprilitis.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Aprilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12121135425341650971noreply@blogger.com1
