A Handpainted Desk

I thought I would pop on this afternoon to show a quick before and after of a desk I refinished a couple months back.  

My son and I found this desk at the transfer site one day in poor shape, abandoned, and upside down.  My three kids stopped questioning long ago when I suddenly rubber neck, back up the car, and excitedly announce, "I need your help!" 

I like to think I'm implementing important life lessons in #budgetshopping, #usingwhatyouhave, #humbledumpsterdiving.

The blessing is that my boys are becoming so tall and strong, I rarely have to move my own furniture anymore.  The bigger blessing is they do it with servants' hearts.

Most of the time.
