Spiffin' up the house

After over two years of procrastinating, I finally took the "bull by the horns" and called the cabinet refinisher to work on my Nana's china cabinet.  We had meant to do the work ourselves but it ended up being a bit too much of a task for us.  He came and picked it up and had it done in days.  Why did we wait so long?!??!?

Doesn't it look great??  Once we had the china cabinet positioned in the dining room we could FINALLY hang the chandelier over our table.  Yay!!  We love how it all came together and love that it's done!!

And, while we were at it, we decided to completely redo the office.  It worked the way it was, but the desks weren't really all that functional and I dreamed of having more space to spread out.  It was a TON of work to research, buy, build, and arrange everything but it was definitely worth the effort.

Special thanks to my Dad and John for all their work running electrical both in the attic and under the house!
