Today, y'all get to the pretty makeover of the Drexel Dressers! The Drexel china cabinet reveal was yesterday, so if you missed you can read about it here.
These dressers allowed me to have a first. I got to paint something pink! Pink is not my favorite color, blue is, but here lately things have been painted a blue, a neutral or with a glazed finish. I love all of those finishes but its nice to do something different every once in a while.
The client for the dressers has twin girls and needed some big storage for clothing. These dressers are huge so they are perfect for the job.

Drexel China Cabinet Makeover
Happy Wednesday!
Oh my, it's been cold! This Texas girl can not handle it. Lows in the 20s and only getting to the low 40s for a high is unbearable to me. When I am cold my body gets tense and starts to hurt. My friends give me a hard time for carrying a jacket with me everywhere I go, even in the summer. I grew up in Southeast Texas (Beaumont area) and now live near Galveston and that is as far north as I can go. My friends and I joke that we will never live north of I-10...silly Texans. But seriously, for those of you who are enduring crazy low temps and just unbelievable wind chills, I hope y'all are staying warm and safe.
So because of my cold (illness) last week and the cold (weather) over the weekend and on Monday, I have been playing catch up the last few days trying to get some big projects finished up. Remember a few months ago, I found 3 amazing Drexel bow front pieces. If you don't remember, you can read about it here. Today, I am going to show you the Drexel China Cabinet!

Resolutions & Budgets
Happy New Year everyone! I hope 2014 is a great year for everyone!
After 5 days of visiting family and family visiting us for Christmas, I had high hopes for this week to get caught up. It didn't happen. I posted on Facebook Tuesday, that I caught that annoying cold that's going around. My favorite things this week that I just can not live (or breathe) without are Mucinex D, Aleve and a box of tissue.
I am a glass half full kind of girl so on a positive note, other than my cold, 2014 has been good so far and hopefully 2014 will be the best yet. We have some exciting stuff going on this year. Speaking of, do y'all do resolutions?

FWF's Year Review - 2013
What a difference a year makes. This has been a huge year for Fisherman's Wife Furniture and for me personally. This marks one full year out of the classroom and being a full time business owner. Somedays I still can't believe it and I am waiting for someone to come take it all away.
Over the past few months, many new followers and readers have come along so I want to do a quick review of my favorite and/or most popular posts from 2013.
