DISCLAIMER: This is primarily a personal journal, featuring my experiences with DIY projects on a small budget. I am not a professional, so if you would like to follow any of my tutorials, please keep this in mind. What works for me might not work for you. Individual results are not guaranteed.
SAFETY FIRST!: I do not preface every project of mine or others with the safety precautions one should take while working on these projects. This is a fun and light hearted, mainly visual, before and after type of blog featuring projects by amateurs and non-professionals. Use common sense when attempting any of the projects, consult a safety manual if need be, and ask if you have any questions.
And remember, whenever dealing with older furniture pieces, or homes, where the materials used in the composition are unknown, just assume the worst and protect yourself at all times from toxic fumes and dust particles by wearing a proper mask, goggles, and working in well ventilated areas.
