Money is pretty tight around here (I'm sure pretty much anyone can relate).
Our 12 year old furniture has taken a beating since our men have entered our family, so I decided to try to update the look of our living room a bit by refinishing our tables.
Thank goodness for my crafty friend Katie, who taught me via text message how this process should be done. Busy moms have a hard time actually connecting live on the phone!

And after weeks of trial and error work and a big fat mess in the basement:
Unfortunately, there is a matching armoire that needs to match the new look but I have no idea where I'll find the time!
