Butler's Table Before & After

I made a coffee / beverage bar!

We were in desperate need for more counter space.  You know, the coffee maker & all the fixin's are always so messy.  I have a back entrance off of the kitchen that is hidden and never used by company, so it is the perfect spot.  I used an antique dresser, an old record player, a cupboard & a shelf. 

 I had everything except the fridge & the record player. (which I purchased at the restore)

 I gutted it & gave it a coat of paint.

 This shelf had wallpaper border on the back, which I painted over with chalkboard paint.

 The dresser top was in bad shape, but the drawer fronts were fine, so I left them original.

 The drawer of the record player is now used for the condiments for coffee. 

& below right I now have storage for my Instant Pot.

 The radio area is for the empty K-cups

The black cupboard is full of loose teas.

Crocheted Afghan for a teen boy

 I wanted to break my cycle of starting large projects, getting bored and not finishing them.   I was determined to do this!  I used various stitches to create this unique afghan for my Son.  I have not done very much crocheting, so I just wanted to learn some new stitches.  I did not have a pattern & I love how it turned out.  Pretty proud of myself! 

Thanks for looking.
