Genuinely scared while opening these bottom doors to clean this ancient curio. omG. Creepy!! This I think will be the biggest transformation. I wish I had two weeks just to dedicate to this piece.

Wow! It's been a whirlwind of a year. I've been crazy busy!! This past week has been especially busy. I'm feeling in a reflecting mood. Maybe because I'm another year older. Maybe because I lost someone special. I don't know. But I just want to thank everyone who puts up with me. Who loves me. Who loves my work. Who supports me...thanks!

This table has been a huge eye opener for me. It must have had some major fun over the years! That's all I can say. What I know is that I do love to learn new techniques and be more aware when I look at old pieces. So cheers to this old girl! She'll be lookin' great soon! I should definitely start a blog to record all the different processes I use! If not for others but for myself to remember! Lol 😆 stay tuned -FINALLY??!!- maybe for afters. Very soon.
