He fought me..BUT I WON!

So here is how my day starts yesterday.....

I woke up from this dream:

I am at my shop working by the cash resister when all of these Egyptian people start to come in my back door......LOTS of them.....they just kept coming in. Then they were all wanting to order sweet tea and then they all asked if they could live there.

The End.

Okaaaayyyyy.....so I don't know what I ate before I went to bed but I do remember watching the news and seeing Egypt's troubles. That explains that.

What it doesn't explain is Mr. OTM's attitude toward my chest....um I mean TWO DRAWER CHEST. See below.

Just two days ago this little beauty had no top (good grief this post could go either way...sorry!)

It had everything else....a FAB gray paint, chippy none the less, all her knobs, nice and sturdy, dovetail drawers, cute little legs...so on.

Plus her price was right...WAYYYY RIGHT.....so I brought her home cuz I had an idea.

We had a stack of wood in the garage that came from an old farmhouse kitchen.

Nice chippy white wood.

I thought it would look awesome as a top.Mr. OTM...not so much!

He actually said it was "too chippy"!
Them's is fightin words!
I know...I know....and here I thought I had made such progress with the boy.

After what seemed like an eternity of pleading my case.....

HE CAVED!!!

And I am so beyond thrilled with how it turned out!

Please tell me what you think.

I promise to share the good and the bad with

Mr. OTM.

(I have a feeling you're gonna like it though * wink*)

It made it's way in the Sleepy Poet where she sits front and center....

with her top on!

This last little pic is a tiny teaser of the Depot booth that I spent all day putting together.

It's all done and yep...pictures are comin your way in the next few days.

I am linking this post to the FABULOUS Kathleen over at Faded Charm White Wednesday!

Get yourself on over there and be prepared to drool!
