First of all, an apology to all of the NASCAR fans who had to miss the past two races because of rain and being rescheduled on Mondays. I'm sure it's all my fault because at the end of July I decided to take vacation time on August 3 and 10, which meant I got to actually watch the races! HA!
But on to my latest project...

After-after:
Mom had some red paint leftover from one of her painting projects and gave it to me to repaint my cabinet. She and I painted it together back in July. Then, this past weekend I stained it and attached the green woven placemats I found at the Dollar Tree for $1 each. I stained the placemats so they weren't quite so garishly apple-green. The stain didn't take so well because the grass mats had been finished with something shiny. But the fact that the stain didn't take uniformly over the mats is kinda cool. Looks pretty nifty, yeah? I think it looks modern (the colors) with a twist of country/traditional (the hardware, the woven mats, and the design).
