Dresser makeover

I picked up this antique dresser last summer at a garage sale for $5. The veneer was cracked and missing and there were no drawer pulls. I filled the places missing veneer with wood filler and sanded..Here's what it looks like today after I primed it with an olive base...Tomorrow I will take a candle and rub over the high spots and then paint the cream...After that coat dries, I will sand the high spots to let some of the green show through...I might paint something on the drawers if inspiration presents itself

Love hate relationship

Whenever I start to hate Facebook or the internet I remember...That my children, grandchildren, friends and family are just a click away...That I can smell fresh picked strawberries, see newborn babies, remember sweet times, know that love is invisible but always there...

Love is a choice, not an obligation...There is no need to feel guilt if you don't feel emotion when it is expected.
