I received a Christmas present today. No it's not an early Christmas present, it's a late one. I sure hope you are not confused.
Sean's Christmas present to Tim and me was to paint an old sofa table that was my Mom's. This table was in awful shape and I was planning on doing it myself. But Sean, is much better at this furniture refinishing thing than I am. Tim is good too, but, I use him for other household repairs and improvements.

I won't tell you what else was on the list to get done because then you'll just think I'm a slacker, because some of it is still not done.
Here I go rambling again. So, (do I say so a lot? I think I do but I like that word, if it bothers you, I can start using a
What do you people think?? Like it???
A closer look...
Did you say you wanted to see another angle?
Please excuse the decor items that I have on the table. I'm planning a Home Goods/Tai Pan/Kirkland's trip soon for the front room, I need things for the top and I'm thinking I need an ottoman for underneath. Also, I'm thinking that the mirror is looking not so hot anymore. What do you think if I replaced it with this...

Of course I need to hang him up and everything but, I like it.
Do you like it?
