I Have a Project List

Yeah another post about moving. Sorry. Deal with it. As our move gets closer, my "project list" keeps growing. So far I am: converting a parlor sewing cabinet into a china cabinet (shelving purchased) Converting a sewing table into a desk Recovering a vanity bench Recovering dining room chairs Sanding and refinishing a vanity/desk Possibly refinishing a headboard. I am strangely committed to making our new apartment a home. I have never had a place that wasn't a hodgepodge of free furniture. I have never had  a place to share with someone else. I want to do this right. I have no idea where this burst of nesting is coming from. It certainly isn't something I inherited from my parents. I know some of it is doing the most with what we have. We have limited space, and some great stuff that could just use some TLC and/or repurposing. I am looking forward to the new challenges and having fun getting the apartment in shape.
