More Project From Boise Trip

The main project I helped my sister-in-law is finally finished. We refinished a hutch. It had three layers of paint on it. We sanded it all they way down. That was the part that I helped with the most. It was missing glass and I suggested using chicken wire. I also suggested putting in her can fruit. She did all the hard work though. She painted it black and the ruffed it up with the sander. I think it really turned out great.


While we were working on the hutch my brother was working on this cabinet for their bathroom. I think it also turned out great.

Redid some couches

My husband's parents gave us a couch and my sister-in-law gave us a love seat. I went to a Home Fabric store. They had some fabric for 3.00 yard. I redid the two couches for 65 bucks. It was a fun project and I couldn't have done it without my sister-in-law and my husband they were a lot of help. The first thing we did is took all of the old fabric off. We got it all down to the wooden frame. We started with the bottom, then the arms, then the front of the back, and at last the back. Then we used the old cushions as a pattern so we knew what size to make them. That is it! It was a lot of work and it took two days to cover it and two days to cover the cushions. Well here are the pictures! Tell me what you think!
