Let's Find a Cure!!

In late April of this year, my 3 year old niece was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. She now has to get her blood sugar checked and insulin shots several times a day. I cannot imagine what this can be like for a 3 year old. On October 2 my family will be doing a walk for finding a cure for type 1 diabetes. Here is her website if you feel led to make a donation to help with finding this cure. Her name is Arianna Rizzardi. Thank you all SO much!

Before and After



This is now my second furniture restoration piece and I have to say that I am thinking I found a new hobby :) This piece used to be my step-father's when he was a child and he couldn't be happier to have this dresser in his granddaughter's room now. So here is the new piece that is now in my daughter's room. I also redecorated her room today :) I'll post pics of that tomorrow :)
