So Much to Share!!!

First of all, the finished bench. I may still add some trim to the edges and perhaps add a back, but its a good bench even if I don't do anything more to it.

I also finished the rest of the room. The dining room is now completely different than before. How great right?!!! I just love it. Now the family ends up hanging out in the diningroom instead of the other rooms in the house. Its been a lot of work, but so worth it. I even took the old brass light fixture and spray painted it graphite colored and replaces the window blinds for a cleaner streamlined look. I am really proud of how it turned out.

I really like the new light fixture too. Or rather the new look. A little spraypaint and NO MORE BRASS!! :-)
