Beth's Blue Beauty
Sep 28, 2010
Before: A vanity that no one could love. Well, maybe a hoarder. Or a blind person who needed the storage. But besides that, no one.
After: A 'blue ocean breeze' beauty. Beth from Sawdust and Embryos knew this former hunk o junk had potential, and she deserves an award for being able to judge that from this original before photo from Craigslist.
{Rambling side note: WHY oh WHY do people post such crappy pictures on Craigslist? Is the technology that baffling? Do they figure that a blurry picture taken from 80 feet away on a rainy day with their kid's Fisher Price Digi-Cam, uploaded to the size of half a postage stamp is really going to entice buyers? Is it that hard to kick the mounds of crap and clutter out of the background or dust at off at least the top layer of dust before taking the picture? I'll never understand. But hey, I guess low expectations mean low prices, right?}
Anyways, it's just gorgeous now. I love all the little scroll-y details. Thanks Beth!
