For my son's birthday, I wanted to make him a workbench. I scoured Pinterest for a couple of reference ideas & decided that the best route was to customize an existing piece of furniture. We had a castoff, press board microwave cart that had been filling in as an entertainment center until we customized a dresser for that purpose. Instead of donating the cart to Goodwill, we took this:
And turned it into this:
The best part: Lincoln played with it on his birthday for the WHOLE DAY STRAIGHT.
And while this seems completely unrelated to the topic at hand, I will say this. Old Sara lacked the confidence to take an idea (which she had scads of) & try to bring it to fruition. New Sara has picked up a little self confidence that ripples beyond the shape of her rump to the shape of her goals.
Love this! I feel the same way! Now that I have finally been able to make changes in my body, that confidence has spilled over into so many other things. :) Good for you! The bench looks awesome, by the way!
ReplyDeleteThat work bench is really fantastic, nice work! Looks like SOMEBODY will finish your basement. :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the measuring tape detail and the molding along the bottom and the peg board! Very nice.
ReplyDeleteNice work, Sara. Dave and Linc are lucky men.
