For those of you that don't get to see our place in person we wanted to give a little teaser before we do a video of our apartment, we have some before and after pictures. This is a dresser we got at DI. It wasn't in very good condition, but it was cheap and had a lot of drawers
We made a few repairs on it with the help of Jeff, and it was starting to look like we would keep it and look good.
The we started to paint it with some spray paint and I was impressed with how spray paint looked when it wasn't on an overpass marking someones territory.
This is the finished product, and it is still a little small but we were excited on how it turned out.
Some friends in the ward were moving and they couldn't take this futon with them, Without seeing it Marybeth told them we would take it. We had no idea that it would be so nice.
It was in really good condition but we wanted to spice it up a bit so we bought this cover that we saw in an advertisement and we are very happy with the outcome. It fits and looks great, in fact Sarah slept on it last night and said it was comfy.
This was Marybeth's "baby" She liked it from the moment she saw it, I thought it was nice but didn't think it had any good use for us at this stage. But I have since changed my mind. We did some work on it and sanded a bit and this is how it turned out.
For a couple of people without much experience I thought is was pretty good. We found two baskets at two different Walmarts and are looking for more, but we shall see. It is currently in our bedroom and fits just right.

Everything looks great. I talked with Mom and she said how great everything looked so I am glad you posted pictures. I am amazed at the transformation of the dresser and the futon. GREAT WORK!
