I repurposed an old and really beat up dresser as storage for ALL of my sewing patterns. I was able to put away all but about 100 paterns...Why do I have so many! Pictures on my blog!

That is just awesome. What a beautiful piece you have now. I love the spools for handles idea and the lettering is so pretty. wonderful creativity!

O, a trouble's a ton or a trouble's an ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it!
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt that counts,
But only--how did you take it?

Lisa I love it!! I have just started redoing furniture. How did you paint your graphics? and What paint remover do you like to use? I like your blog, Barbara

Don't forget to laugh!

That is absolutely beautiful. Now I am going to be on the look out for something that I can turn into a holder for my many patters. Thanks so much for the idea. I absolutely love it.

You did great work, I "found" a free armoire that I have not finished re-finishing. So much on my plate right now, I've had it for a little over a year and I have the sides and drawer fronts done. Looking at yours gives me hope!
