2 dressers finished

Windy Monday.. geez.. no rain as forecast just miserable wind. I awoke at 5, wind, back to sleep and awake at 7 still wind. I double checked Britt was up as she was off to work with Ty early again today. Sheldon got it together and was off to town for doctor appointment at 10 and errands. I spent the morning finishing up the 2 dressers. I added metallic creme to both and the hardware.. Baby also got her dose of meds.

I added belt buckle to the gold hardware to protect and add a wee bit of dimension

 right shows silver on the white and below the belt buckle.. just a bit to dark I think, silver it is for both

I also tried one of my new Fusion stencils on the back, how sweet is this

Sheldon was back home by noon and a friend stopped for a visit soon after. I popped in to join them for a bowl of soup then was back out in the garage while they did a house/shop tour before he headed off. Sheldon was back to the shop working on the hitching rail while I waited for the dressers to dry after putting hardware back on. The blog got an update as well as a CM blog post on the curio cabinet.  Time to start the dresser blogs as well.

hard to see but green dresser got a silver top and the white drawer fronts

There was also RMPC president duties, securing our club insurance and continuing on the darn jersey/jacket order. Holy cow things seem extensive to initially set up a new club! Britt was home just after 3 and promptly hit the sheets for a 2 hr nap. I braved the bitter wind to snap some pictures of the new hitching post catching the worker like this..

apparently he just sat down ;) Here it is safely secured thru the wall and 3 new 4X4 posts on the other side. here is his behind the scenes pic of mid progress

I had to roust Britt from her slumber to join us for supper and then we loaded up 3 horses to haul to chiropractor, all 3 were out. We coasted into the fuel station on fumes to fill for the trek back home. Release and inside where hockey consumed Sheldon, Britt headed downstairs and I worked on the many blog posts. The high of 12 dropped to 5 but the wind made it feel colder, I brought my plants in and Diego begged his way in for night # 2 back in the garage! Shaina arrived around 10 to spend the night to hit her 11 am shift tomorrow.
