For a little extra storage in the baby's room, we took a nightstand (that we got for free from a friend) and refinished it. Refinishing and reusing furniture is quickly becoming one of our very favorite things. Anyone who has ever shopped for and/or bought furniture knows that quality stuff does not come cheap. So, every chance we get with a free or low cost piece of furniture that we need, we take it! We've always been able to redo it and use it. Check out what the nightstand looked like when we got it:
It is another piece of solid wood furniture with some old school hardware (right up our ally). Below is the end result after sanding, painting, and getting new pulls for the drawers.
I mean, how sweet is it to furnish our baby's room with a FREE nightstand and a $30 dresser?!? We're really excited that it came together the way it did. Stay tuned...more projects (especially for the nursery) to come!
