before...


Look what someone dumped on the side of the road.
We drove down to the ponds at the end of our road, to take the dogs for a walk on Sunday, and just past my driveway, somebody dumped this dresser along the road... Well, now.
I couldn't leave it just lay there!

;-)

Makes a great before and after project right?
The handles that fell off are in the drawer... One leg in the back is broken off, but totally fixable. Top needs a bit of glue. a good sanding and a fresh coat of paint... I love projects like this!



With pictures like this, you'd think my house was in MN... nope.
Eastern long island... who knew! When I get home sick for Northern MN landscapes,
I go for a walk here...



It was hot... can you tell?

Spent the rest of the day at the beach...ice cream and mini golf...
Quilting? What's that?

Nice lazy Sunday.

  4. It's amazing that someone would just dump that out on the side of the rode. Why not donate it to Habitat for Humanity or some other charity? Oh well, I'm glad it found a good home. Beautiful scenery!
