More progress

This is for you Cyd. I took these with my cell phone so the pictures are not great. These are the drawers that were completed last night. You can sort of see the antiqued edge with the stain around them. They had just received their last coat of poly and were put back in their slot to dry so they are super shiny in these photos but will dry a little more matte.You can see Rachel doing the final coat of poly on the drawers here. We got the fridge back in place yesterday. Nat, Rosemarie and I managed it! You can also see more of the doors on the counter drying from a coat of poly. Everything is slow going right now because you have to wait about 4 hours between coats.
Grandma Pat and I are headed there after Caleb gets out of pre-school today to get another coat on the doors. I guess once that is done, we will start touch ups and also try to work on the hutch. Yes, now we are also refinishing furniture too. Nat put together the bench that goes with Mom's table too, so that will be a fun little suprise for her!

When you say finishing furniture does that mean that you are painting it?

Yup! The legs and main part of the hutch that she has are white with oak shelves. Now it is going to be black with oak!
