It's Too Pink!!!

Much too girly and delicate for my taste...And for that matter, for everyone else's.

It needs other colors on it.  I am going to repaint it a bit darker and start over with the decorations. I also see some spots that need more sanding.

Can you tell I don't like it. Not at all!
When I  put it in the kitchen, the whole thing turns pastel.  Not at all what I wanted.

back to the drawing board.  Darkness falls.
Meanwhile, yesterday afternoon, I started playing with one of the slanted desk kits. 

I cut out part of each side and am carving trees now. 

So far, at least I am having fun with this one.  I have no idea where it is going or where it will land.  I doubt if it will be to Daisy's liking. 

So, It will stay in the stash until I decide.

I am going back and starting over with the drawers and shelf now.  It's really icky. 

See you tomorrow.

    Casey, I agree with Cara. It's gorgeous! But then I know that you prefer darker colours! It's kind of sad to undo all that wonderful work you did on it!

    I love your carving of a tree and look forward to seeing what you do with that kit.

    Hello Casey,
    I like it, but I see what you mean about it turning pastel. It's a shame to paint over your beautiful work, but if we must, we must!
    Big hug,
    Giac
