I got this off of craigslist for $50. A dresser, mirror, full size headboard, night stand, and armoire. I refinished the mirror and put it above my piano and I love it, so my $50 was well spent, since I already had the turquoise paint and dark glaze...
2 days of ripping off molding and the backs of some of the pieces and removing traces of mold, ripping the tops off and feeling like a big strong girl and replacing them with better wood that wasn't crumbly and gross, learning how to properly clamp pieces together and even get hit in the face with a clamp or two, 2 coats of primer, 10 cans of Ivory spray paint, some hot pink glaze, contact paper, 5 cans of polyurothane, and about 4 days of work got the rest of the bedroom set (minus the armoire because it won't fit in her room anyways and a close friend is hopefully going to take it on as her project because I don't wanna look at it anymore!) all ready for my niece Hanna's room. I hope that she likes it because I am DONE with it and don't know if I will even take it back! LOL

You're awesome! I really want to redo my table I did like 4 years ago, but I don't think Matt would let me, but if I do, I'm coming to you for better advise. You seem to know how to do it right! Love all your projects you do, very talented!
