What's better than getting new furniture? Getting it from a flea market and restoring it! This is our latest and greatest project and we are so excited to put our handy-man skills to work. Ok honestly, we have very few handy-man skills, but we're giving it a go.
We found 2 great pieces at an flea market/antique store called Star Mill Antiques in American Fork...a side table and a dresser. The side table is for us and the dresser will be a wedding presesnt for my brother. Total both cost only 40 bucks.
My goal is to learn how to reuphoslter and restore so that when we have a house I can "make" a lot of our furniture.
We'll post our progress as we go.

Thats what we did! I have done a couple of chairs, and its hard. But totally worth it!
