My New Restored Vanity Bench

AFTER

BEFORE

I have an obsession with restoring old raggedy, sad, depressed furniture. I literally get like a high after restoring something. I don't know why it feels so good! I love thrift shopping, and am always on the look out for something reasonable to fix. Although, one objective of mine was to sell things after I restored them(that's what I told my husband) After putting my TLC on these lonely sad furnishings, I can't help but keep them! (Shhhh...just keep it on the DL)

I have always wanted a pretty vanity bench, and this is what I came up with. I actually really really really wanted to upholster this bench with genuine cowhide....but my dang budget wouldn't allow. ): I still think this is a heck of a lot better then the way I found it. 

If anyone has any old furniture and wants to restore it- email me! I would love to help. I love recycling and restoring furniture. Sustainability is where it's at (;
