That vanity is screwed together, and made of MDF pressboard and what they call "rubberwood". I know 600 price is lower than the retail price but it's still much more than it is worth.
Here's the thing: if you're trying to make a set of 3, I don't think it will work unless the 3rd chair is 100% identical. Having a chair that looks ALMOST the same but isn't may not be the stronge...

Here's a great tip, esp if you own pets: if you moisten your mop fairly thoroughly and run it over your low pile rugs like a giant sponge it will pick up TONS of animal hair and debris, MUCH mor...
Like many others, I would paint the walls a light creamy color, and leave the wood ALONE, (woodwork is nearly the whole POINT of a Craftsman house, the Julianne Moore house is different period a...
Also Rebecca, if this is your first DIY maybe you should start with something less precious/pretty. That way if it doesn't come out perfectly, you don't have the added pressure of having destroyed...
