It's a wonder the house didn't kerplode.

Things I FINALLY accomplished on my winter break:

I put the door on my little antique washstand back on, for the first time in over 37 years. The washstand now serves as my altar.

I finished the Dora desk, post to come on that, but see the previous post for a pic.

I finished building my bed. Post to come on that, too.

Bedroom all cleaned, organized, decorated (except for a couple of spaces for which I need art, or something and the closet still needs a bit of work).

Oh my frippin' god...those first three are huge, just huge.

Happy New Year and all that jazz...

Eventually, there will be a real post about this desk, but for now. here's the "after" pic. I absolutely love how it came out. Might not be for everyone's taste, but I love it.
