Moving right along

Well, I've gotten one thing on my list started. The easiest part, really. The dresser that I plan to makeover has some major condition issues regarding the drawer bottoms, namely that the pins that the drawers slide on have worn their way completely through the bottoms of my drawers. This has lead to quite a few wood shaving-covered sweaters in the lower drawers as the rubbing wood filters down.

The first step in replacing these is simple - give one to dad so he can see what's on the market in the right thickness to replace them. Hey, he's the guy with all the tools, so if he's looking for a project why not let him do some of the dirty work? I'll still have all the sanding, priming, painting and hardware installation. I can't wait to get it started!
