At the time they were only primed white and now they're a bright and luscious red :) So I took a few more pics and decided it was tutorial time!

For the past few months I’ve been practically drooling over her amazing work and dreaming of where I would put these once unattainable pieces in my house. I wasn’t sure when I would be able to convince my husband to let me spend money on wood on something that might or might not turn out. I don’t blame his doubt as I’ve never really worked with wood outside of a few very very simple projects.
Wood can get expensive…and I was relatively wary about doing it myself – surely it couldn’t be THAT easy and I’m impatient which meant the project could end in disaster.
