Meet Big Red

Meet my new air compressor, Big Red. We were out doing a little painting with the paint sprayer yesterday and I thought I would introduce you. She's big and a bit intimidating but I like her.

I finished up the other part of the bedroom set I bought to spruce up and sell. I wish I could find furniture like this more often.

First we have this sweet scalloped bed...

Can you believe we have all these leaves on the ground already? They came from a tree that sits on the outside of our fence. It leans over our yard and looses its leaves faster than any tree around, it's almost bare!

Here is the matching dresser...

First I sanded them down with medium grit sandpaper, primed then sanded again with a fine sanding block.

Then a few light coats of paint sanding one more time between coats.

I think these pieces would be perfect in a little girl's room, don't do you think?
