Here is a before and after picture of how Pete's work has transformed our home. A few months ago, Pete made these wonderful, beautiful, 'only for books,' bookshelves. He even let me help! I was given the special task of staining and was eager to share in his love for woodworking. The carpenter lingo is still a little new for me, but I could understand, 'Cut up an old tee-shirt and wipe the excess stain off after you spread it on the wood.' Many of you already know, but Pete is a very good instructor. He is very gifted at explaining and giving directions, and even patient with me when he has to 'help' me. (Or redo it =) ) I have already put in a request for a dresser, a few side tables, a bench, a nightstand, along with furniture for our children. Don't get me wrong, I love Target, but now that I have seen what my expectations should be, I have a hard time settling!
