Before the move, I had one last DIY project to finish up. J's parents were nice enough to give us a Buffet and Hutch that they were no longer using. J's dad built it himself, and it was a very nice piece of furniture. However, lightly stained wood with enamel hardware isn't really our style. For the cost of paint and new hardware, we have an awesome piece for our dining room. In fact, it looks so good, her mom has threatened to take it back!
If you don't have parents donating furniture to you, thrift stores are a great place to find wooden pieces of furniture that are just in need of a little love.
