Home projects are driving me nutz and today I am wrapping up several...arrgggh - I am sick of them.
1) 15 yo daughter needed desk for her room to study. Went to an unpainted furniture store three weeks ago and got a desk and separate corner/computer desk in raw burch...two coats of stain and three coats of polyurethane later, I am ready to put those dudes in her room and get it over with. This is the first furniture finishing work I have ever done and while it came out fine, I had no idea what I was doing at first and had no clue how many hours it would take...and the urethane gives me headaches...our weather has been so spotty that I have had to move the pieces indoors several times to let them dry/cure...
2) 9 yo daughter is Constantly drawing and doing artwork. At any given time we have dozens of markers, crayons and paintbrushes all over the house...I cannot even put the morning paper and coffee down on the kitchen table for all of it. At the same store, I got an unfinished table and two chairs. Put a nice coat of primer on them last weekend and am putting two coats of paint on today...moving them into her room tomorrow.....................................
AFTER I play golf.
