Sunday Funday

Well most people wouldn't thinks so
but it is my kinda Sunday Funday
So my company decided to redo the office
 and
GUESS WHO THEY ASKED TO REDO THE FURNITURE THEY ARE
KEEPING.....
ME :)

Before of the conference room table

Primed and readyyyy to paint
(didnt get a before of the cubes...they were maroon
and the company did a overhaul off the office...
so I painted them Gray to coordinate with the new decor)

A little word of advice just in case you didn't know....
If you have an item that is laminate or something that you can not sand to prepare for painting they sell either gripper paint or a primer  paint which makes the paint adhere to the surface :)




And then there is the boys
sunday funday
FOOTBALL!!!!
(Except Mike he is back there working right along with me)

Just want to say....



to each and everyone that supports me and believes in me and Sweet Sweet Simplicity.
 To all my friends, family and loved ones that share my posts on Facebook and send their friends and loved ones my way.
 For all the praise and compliments....
That is why I am here doing what I love and there wouldn't be a Sweet Sweet Simplicity without each and everyone of you!!!! 
My pieces sell fast and some before even completed!!!
I am truly one lucky lady
with a ton of people on my side and that love helping me succeed!!!

A little thing that reminded me...one of my favorite buyers
(and one of my best girlfriends...Thanks Deanna)
said to me today
Les quit listing and selling things without showing me first damn it
my favorite pieces in my home are the ones that you have done :)
(For the record her home is GORGEOUS with some amazing pieces....How Flipping awesome is that....makes me feel all good inside...teeheeeheee)


AND

A special thanks to Mike....
even though he is so busy making his own dreams come true is always there helping me and supporting me with mine...
Michael not really sure where I would be without you baby
Thanks for every single thing you do!!!

I know some days I can be a pain in the ass
(can you help me move this...can we pick this up...Cna we deliver this....can you...can you can you....
and each and every time its yes...Thanks for that) 
but I hope all the awesome days we have make it all worth while ;)
