crib update

first things first. the crib is not done. but it is looking awesome! lee has been shellacing (protecting the wood but not with varnish or stain), i have been sanding, and this weekend, we will be gluing it all together! we've had a few absolutely gorgeous days over the past week or so, and have taken advantage of the weather to get some work done on this, the only piece of furniture we have for the kid. :)

unfinished pieces that have been sanded three times and are ready to be stained, the dowels drying on a unique drying rack (read plank stuck with several nails) after their first coat of shellac

I can't wait to see the crib. I can hold baby powers until it is done. I know that you will be sleeping to get your beauty rest and body back in shape. Love you!
