Before and After Pics

I am just about finished with making Zoe’s Christmas gift.  I posted a picture of this table a few weeks ago.  I bought it (and the chairs) at a Mom2Mom sale.  I decided I wanted to paint it to go with her kitchen set that we got her for her first birthday.

This is the kitchen:

Here’s a picture of me working on it. (There’s a stuffed puppy next to my arm behind me…it looks a little funny in the pic!)

Tada!

I just need to put another coat or two of sealer on it.  IMG_5388-1

It’s such a good feeling to have it done, but it was really fun to work on for  her, too!  It took over 14 hours to paint…I’m so excited to see her use it and play with it.
