This is a blog hop I am following.  We are finishing the following statements.

This week’s statements:

OK, this is Five question Friday  http://fivecrookedhalos.blogspot.com/

Link up and get to know your blogger friends better!

1. If you knew your best friend's spouse was cheating on her or him, would you tell her (him)?  This is really a tough question.  I think if I knew for sure, and not through gossip, I might consider telling her.  I sure would want someone to tell me.  Maybe even catch him myself by being somewhere they are and letting him know that if he doesn't say something, I will.

2. Soda in a can or a bottle?  Oh my gosh definitely a bottle, I think can soda has too much carbonation for some reason


3. What do you wash first, hair or body? Hair first, conditioner, wash body then rinse conditioner out of hair. I think you should always go top to bottom
.
4. What advice would you give to any new mama?  It does get better.  They will sleep eventually.  Try and enjoy every minute because they grow so fast!

5. What is your best hangover remedy? Water before bed along with 3 Advil. Not that I have needed this remedy for a while, it is what I recall and also raising 4 kids that went to college

Have a wonderful weekend filled with family and friends!

Design question....

Well, I am coming to my friends in blog land to help me out with a design question.  I have moved my buffet from the hall into the dining room.  It can actually go in two different places.  The question is I am not sure where it would look best.  On the wall where the window is, I thought it would look good with a mirror over it, but it seems too close to the window.  What do you think?  I know it does fit in the other space where the tea card is.  Should I switch them?

Mirror over top here.

I will be waiting patiently for all your advice.

Thanks!

One down, 4 to go!

Wahoo, I am done my end table that I was working on.  I think it came out pretty good.  I found the cutest knobs at Anthropology.  I will start with the before picture~

This was one of our end tables that we bought when we were first married.  Sentimental value, so I really wanted to use it somewhere since it is 36 almost 37 years old!

I thought I would paint it white and use it in our guest room.  After I painted it I put a wax on it.  I think I expected it to come out a little shinier.

Ta da!

I also distressed it a little as well.

Check out those knobs!

Well, what do ya think for my first piece?

If anyone has any advice on a shinny wax, I would love to know about it.

I have 4 other pieces that I want to work on, so as I finish them I will def post pictures.  I do appreciate constructive criticism.

Have a great day!
