He Loves Me...

What can I say? When the hubby takes his knowledge of something I love (louvres), and something I want (bedside tables) and marries the two together, I feel cherished, cared for and well loved. I was actually going to post on this in February last year - but I had wanted to make over the room they were going in to... it's still a work in progress.

A while ago (last year) he picked up these louvres for free on one of his jaunts, and brought them home. Then he started planning. The bench saw got a work out before assembly, and then I joined him for the painting (we painted one each - but he did both tops).

Have you ever tried leaning over/sitting to paint while pregnant? (Don't worry - I had a special mask on that filters out the chemicals). It's awkward, I have to say.

And here they are.

 



 A little bit of bespoke to go in the guest room - and I LOVE 'em! Thanks honey - you're better than one in a million!!!

    They are simply fabulous!!! Is the room getting close to a final reveal? It seems like it takes me forever to complete a project lately. I just keep finding things that are more necessary (or more fun) to do! I so enjoy that you and your hubby are so in love... takes such work, but is so rewarding!!! xoxo from California, jules

      Ahem. No. We moved, and all plans got shelved. Sigh.
