Hello, Friday.  We're about to kick off the weekend with some Before and
After project photos and it wouldn't be the same without you!  Let's get started.

    A chevron print and a paint job completely updated this 1960s chair:

That's right - when this $12 Goodwill desk was refinished a dry eraser
board was used for the top.  Brilliant!


    A pair of inexpensive end tables were rehabbed into fun accent pieces:

kitchen chose wisely:

The rock border and steps are charming:

I'm sure the home owners association is thrilled with these results:

This 'after' proves that an exterior renovation isn't complete 'til the landscaping is updated:

This house looks so much more attractive now that the landscaping has been tamed:
