Project of the Day

A nice before, after, and my mess in between my construction of a small trunk into a coffee table. 


It's a perfect fit for the space. Not pictured is the other half of my living room (which yes, I have rearranged 4 times this week) that has another 2 sections of sofa with a real coffee table in front of it. Best part about this is that this one is a chest, so I can put a blanket inside it and keep the kitty hair off it during its downtime! - Sorry Kuj - 

So as with pretty much every DIY project, there are those great moments when you say, "Really? Damn."

Here are a couple of mine ...
Left: I stood the newly formed table up and it was too tall. 
Good thing I own a battery powered hand saw! 
See ya 3 extra inches. 
Right: Closing up the stain for the legs and chest the ring 
of the can splattered ALLLL over me. The clothes 
I could care less about ... the fact that Im gonna look
like a giraffe for the next few days I could do without
