A successful day on Craigslist!

* sold our old t.v. stand for $160

* found someone in need of moving boxes and was more than happy to give ours.

* and oh yea got this piano - for free!

well not completely free, I did have to make some of my delicious double chocolate cupcakes to entice a few strong men to come (with pick up truck) to help me haul it home.

My original intent was to paint it a fun color, but now that I have it home I'm not sure if I should just refinish it (or if I'm even capable of that), paint it a fun color, or maybe a classic white or black??? I am open to suggestion and inspiration!

  1. you have all the craigslist luck! i've been trying to sell the same few things for like a month now. :(
    the piano would look very unique in white! i like black too. i have no idea how you'd go about painting it or refinishing it though. are you going to learn to play now? ill come give you lessons!:) im pretty sure you could afford me, i charge in cupcakes. :)
