A little project

Due to work, I had to cancel my trip to Utah on Friday, boooo! So stuck here for the weekend I decided to take on a little project.
For my job, I get sit in front of a computer every day, clicking, typing, and clicking and typing...it's really not that boring, it just sitting around all day, on a computer. So when I get a chance to do something active, it's pretty refreshing. I decided to restore a dresser for a friend who needed one, but it had to match the other furnitures, brown wood just wouldn't do.
This dresser was found sitting on the side of a road with a "free" sign taped to it. It was pretty beat up and there was a lot of water damage on the top.
I thought I would document this little project, and here are some pictures of the process. Why document and post about it? I guess I'm just easily amused ;)

This project was a really fun, I think I'm gonna do this again, but with my coffee table. It needs to be black too.
