Question Do you enjoy redoing furniture?

I love redoing furniture. I don't like pieces of furniture painted, so anything I find, I strip back to its original wood.

How about you?

I like to redo furniture. What I'd really love to learn is to upholster furniture.

I bought a desk for dd 1 at Salvation Army that was really beat up, but very sturdy for $2.00. We stripped, sanded, filled in some really deep scratches, and painted it. Added some new knobs. Me and dd1 did all the work together and had a blast. I can't wait to find a new project.
