Ah. . . . . how luxurious it is to bask in the glow emanating from the amazing
accomplishments of others.

And, by bask I mean admire, esteem, commend, and just plain envy (in a good
way) the incredible talents of a promising young star in the Blogisphere.   You
ask, "to whom are you referring?"  Melody of My Passion for Decor, of course!

Here are just a few of Melody's brilliant Before & After projects:

Yes, I'm a fool for chairs, especially dressed up chairs:
 
 


You know that I love natural wood. . . . most of the time.

Without a doubt, this is one of the most unexpected re-dos I've ever
run across.  Who would have thunk it?!  I'm still pinching myself.

And one last breathtaking renovation for today:

This makeover is magazine worthy, isn't it?  Can you imagine how tedious
it was to sand and paint the individual little wood rods?  Well done.
