Missing my Lane "Acclaim" No More

Wow! I finally have my furniture back from Grot after a rain delay!

I am so pleased with the way they turned out!

But now we need a new couch!

Across the Pond: Casper James Designs Update

Dig the blue Formica table. Check out the radio on the counter.

Many of my rellies still use these today!

Yummy color! Eye spy with my little eye something beginning with "l".

Nice table! Nice rug!

Wow!

My Wish List...

As I look at my furniture every piece of furniture needs work, even the floor! I have always wanted to take a furniture refinishing class at the local community college. When I taught a ballet class at Cerritos College, students would pull their trucks up to the dock of the building next door and unload their furniture projects. I can imagine working through the evening with all the roll up doors open, the smell of varnish and orange oil mingling with the cool air... I would love to be in that class! I browse the community college and education fliers for classes every chance I get. These classes are usually scheduled for Wednesday nights and, (sigh) I don't get home early enough.
