When I was already surrended to your gift the lining on the drawer put the bow.<br /><br />Wonderful! Can you imagine the delicate look it will get when it starts wearing? I can.

Advice is nice, and sometimes inspiring, but if you have an intuitive flash of what you want to do, you owe it to yourself to see the vision through.(That rhumes!) If you don't, you just get things designed by committee.

Doing it all white and sanding. Wonderin now if I should do the top black. Self, doubt! Hee-hee. Actually, I am leaving the drawers stained so I can remember what it was like when my dad sat at it. He passed away when I was only 9 mnths. old so I never knew him. Marking my calender for the big event. Penelope could use a new dress!<br />hugs,<br />JannHave a Daily Cup of Mrs. Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15446091501170762899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-464562679611579552.post-43725403642216792952013-02-05T19:09:02.519-05:002013-02-05T19:09:02.519-05:00I learn immensely intense lessons from events like...I learn immensely intense lessons from events like this.
