happy new year!

Happy New Year!

Just got back home from Germany today  where I spent the holidays with my family. I have to admit I was a little bit lazy over there and didn't really check my emails or spent much time online. Just hung out with my family and friends and it felt good to be lazy for a while!

The beginning of a new year is always about making new year resolutions that a lot of people don't keep anyways. For the new year I did not make any because I'm not good at sticking to them. Maybe that would be something I should put on my resolution list for 2013 ;) This year I just want to finish the projects below, take an upholstery class, go horseback riding more often and overall just enjoy life and my little projects. Sometimes it's the small(er) things that make us happy...

Did you make any new years resolutions? Have you been good about keeping them?

  5. Thanks Santa! I emailed you some info about the classes I found.

    Mary, the plan is to reupholster the chairs and to refinish the dresser. The dresser was painted but the wood underneath looks so much nicer. Hopefully I will finish this one soon.

    I found the chairs on the left on the side of our street on trash day. One man's trash is another man's treasure ;) The dresser and the Saarinen chair were lucky finds on my local craigslist.
