MY GARAGE SALE SCORE
About a month ago, I made a big score at a garage sale. A family was getting rid of this dining set for $50. But it didn’t always look likes this.
The “before” pictures- I spent the last four weekends sanding, stripping and staining the benches and table.
I finished the biggest of the benches this morning. The stain came out a little bit darker than the others, but overall, I really like the finished product.
Perhaps the best part: The benches have storage! This is a big bonus for my family because our small bungalow lacks closet/storage space.
Roses I bought two weeks ago from our local “Trader Joes”. 
A wide shot of our dining/living area. You can see just how tiny our craftsman home really is. The new dining set fits perfectly in the small space.
