Oh my goodness! I made it with most of my sanity in tact (though I guess that could be up for debate…) It’s been a long 6 weeks full of illness and set backs, but my kitchen is done! And I’m so thrilled to share it today! In just 6 weeks, I completed a mini

Today I’m sharing a furniture makeover that I’ve been working on for months! Months ago I brought home a vintage secretary desk to paint and sell.
