So this bench was a great find. I drove past it nearly everyday growing up in my little home town of Joseph City. It was set out side of an old run down auto shop. Bob and I were about to move to a bigger apartment and I was up visiting my parents to go to some yard sales to find old furniture for cheep to fix up. on my last day there I drove past this old bench again and decided that I would add it to my collection so I found out that the old auto shop belonged to my best friend Jana's grandparents. I called her grandma offered to buy it and she gave it to me instead. So here it sits safe and warm to welcome those who come to my home. I still have to give it a good sanding and wax job but for now it will wait in it's old weathered dried out glory.

My little table
So my Aunt used to have this little table in her house and put model boats on it. It was just stained but I always thought it was so cute. So years later now that I am all grown it is mine. :) She was moving and was getting rid of it. It was pretty beat up but my Dad saved it and gave it to me as a birthday gift. I painted it white. I love it. It looks great in this spot that used to look so bare.
