Elizabeth, Unveiled!

Hello blog world!  I have hardly had the opportunity to keep up with one of my favorite past times....blogging!  After the smash and grab on my purse we had AWFUL weather blow through our area!  Tornadoes!  They hit several areas near us but our home remained thank the Good Lord!  We were without power for a while.  And let me tell ya, I had NO CLUE how dependant I am on technology!  Anyway, now that I have a quick sec I wanted to write a post to reveal my update to Elizabeth!  Remember before? 

Elizabeth was my first furniture purchase out of college.  She has always had a special place in my heart.  So when the hubster and I decided we really needed a king size mattress, I couldn't sell her or dare I say "donate" her to a thrift store.  I had a certain two year old who needed a headboard in mind.  Cupcake!  So I sanded and painted to reveal the beauty I always knew was there.  And this was the result: 

I am quite happy!  And loved my first real furniture make over.  If I only had more time I'd be working on my other furniture projects =)  The season for that will be soon enough I am sure.  But right now, it's summer time!  And I plan to R-E-L-A-X as much as possible this year.  =)
