So I am obsessed with the blog www.allthingsthrifty.com she is always redoing something great. I have to check it everyday just to see the new things she has done. The other day she re finished a piano!! She painted it an ivory color. I was totally inspired and HAD to re finish something too. So after searching high and low at the local thrift stores I found this beauty! I could see the potential from the moment I saw it and told Vince I HAD to get it, and I promised that if he let me get it I would not buy another thing from the thrift stores until it was finished. So he (reluctantly) let me get it.
This is the before shot...
So we took it all apart and I spray painted it. First with the primer KILZ (because it comes highly recommended from the all things thrifty lady) And let me tell you it took forever. I finally decided to just get a can of the primer and roll it on because it was taking too long the other way. After it was all primed I spray painted the thing an ivory color. ..
So Allie LOVES to help her mommy and daddy. Actually she HAS to be doing exactly what we are doing or she gets mad. So here she is helping her dad put it back together. She is such a helper. She is practicing to be a Tinker Fairy...
And this is how it turned out. I was pretty happy with it. Although if you look up close you will be able to tell it was my first attempt at refinishing a project.
