I was ...That will be gorgeous when you're done! I was just looking at an old, trashy dresser/chest of drawers (btw, coming from the South, how old were <i>you</i> before you learned it wasn't "chester drawers"? LOL!) that we have that has some veneer coming off. I thought that I might be able to just use some wood filler and sand it, replace the ugly knobs and use it when I do shows with my tassels. <br /><br />Speaking of which, thanks for your comment at Sarah Mae's about my tassels. Yes, that toile frame is one of my favorites, too. I need to make some more of those sweet little things. Got any ideas of other fabrics that would look good as a combination?Heathahleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03526348513736437292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8794631864493169103.post-67970584195130260822009-06-10T15:24:46.517-06:002009-06-10T15:24:46.517-06:00Have never used Freecycle.

And since I gave him the old iron in the first place, I'm using that one!<br /><br />I'm hoping to have these done by the end of July. Maybe ;DSusie Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663241365525328953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8794631864493169103.post-33126360409458506682009-06-05T10:24:28.685-06:002009-06-05T10:24:28.685-06:00Awesome!

I considered a fish last week....then reconsidered. <br />I LOVE that chair! So much character! I cannot wait to see what you do with the other things!Leigh of Tales from Bloggeritavillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01501269563354107349noreply@blogger.com
