"Waiting for the fish to bite or waiting for wind to fly a kite or waiting around for Friday night or waiting, perhaps, for their Uncle Jake or a pot to boil, or a Better Break or a string of pearls, or a pair of pants or a wig with curls, or Another Chance. Everyone is just waiting. No! That's not for you! Somehow you'll escape all that waiting and staying. You'll find the bright places where Boom Bands are playing." Dr. Seuss--Oh, The Places You'll Go!

Dresser for Little Guy - BEFORE
My husband and I bought this ugly dresser from the Boise Bench Commission for 50 dollars. This is a picture of it after I sanded it down, prepping it for some paint. I sanded it with my dad's Makita sander once with 60 grit, then once with 120 grit sand paper. I love the smoothness of the wood after the second sanding...I couldn't stop touching it! I was tempted to just put some lacquer on it and call it good because I thought the wood looked pretty, but there were some inconsistencies in my sanding that would make it look weird...so I painted! I'll post pictures of the painted product once I do the second coat.
