rustic coffee and end table progress

Travis was up and out the door just before 6 am, on his way meet up with Shaina and Kaylin then off boarding they go. Britt was next out the door off to school. Coffee made by the prince got us moving and he too was off to town for trip #1 of the day to visit the doctor. He was not gone long then back home to take out horses a bale and push snow around the loop.

Time to paint the chunky tables my signature blue. After a quick salad for lunch Sheldon head back to town for trip #2 of the day taking trash and seeing acupuncturist as well as pick up tools for the mezzanine build.
I got back to using the power tools cutting a chalk board down to fit my frame, assemble then hang it, I LOVE it. While talking to Amanda on the phone the power glitched then was out.. for about 45 minutes. I heard sirens soon after, it seems a car crash took out the power. Time to distress the tables in the "dark".




Years ago I had a lady hand make angels for each of the girls and myself. Coco ate one set of wings on Shaina's when younger and it seems recently Lexi chewed on Kaylin's. I managed to track down the lady, who sadly no longer makes them, but she was going to look in her attic if any wings left, look what came in the mail!! THANKS Tamina!!

The day was gorgeous hitting plus 7. I hung 2 more things on the wall, I know, it is getting crazy around here. Sheldon got a call from a friend to meet for supper before his meeting with the tenant tonight so he headed back into town for trip #3 for the day. I had been looking forward to steak for supper so stayed behind and cooked mine up.
before and after
I got busy back in the garage making the blue look aged. Travis got back home just before Britt who worked after school so they ate late. Sheldon was home later with news the tenant is moving away. Looks like we will be finding a renter again.
