    Very nice, Maria. I would've never guessed this was your first project. The colors you chose are great! I love the door pulls, very unique.

    Just FYI--that comment was removed. Thank you, Shabby. Regarding uploading pictures--Maria, you are correct, there is no way to upload pictures to a specific profile, it can only be done in the main feed or on an existing post. Let me know if you need any help. :)

    Hey Maria, Miriam is too cool, very helpful. We are getting to be good friends, I need so much help.

    Nice to see your paint job. very nice. It is scary to paint wood isnt it? So many have such a "don't paint wood " belief. My hubs is one of them. Doesnt stop me tho. What will you work on next?

    @ Bernice - there are so many wood purists out there. Some wood is just so old and worn it needs a little paint update.

    Maria, I'm sure you're on facebook. Head on over to my page https://www.facebook.com/ShabbyDazeNJ and meet all my friends. It's where I go every morning for inspiration. Keep up the good work. I don't know what happened to my contest on here! Still learning. Watch for one on FB.
