Project Overload

The past two weekends have been busy, but not with football; we have been doing lots of projects. 
What do you do when you get a new saw? Build a whole workbench for it. We needed some extra storage space anyways and this worked out perfectly. Since Brad finally had a 'man space' he had represent BYU and painted the Sailor Cougar on the wall. My only issue is that it gets dirty with dust. Yes that is the whole point of it, but still it should stay this clean and nice all the time. 
A few weeks ago we got a new tv stand. We went for a minimal look and we love it. We have had our entertainment center since the boys were about 2 and looking at it you could tell. Two doors fell off and there were dings all over it. Even with all of that it was solid and still usable so we decided to up-cycle it. Being too excited to start the project I didn't take a before picture and went searching for it. (the dark middle bench only)
The after. I had to sand it all down. Then we stained the top and painted the bottom white. We love how it turned out and it works in place of the night stands that we were needing. 


The last project we did was a sign for above out bed. We had extra wood, so why not add another project to the list? We are doing to re-stain the grey parts of our bed to match the rest of the things in our room. Now I need another project.
