The Nightstands are finished!

Hi all,

Both nightstands are now done.  For the second nightstand, we decided that using a final coat of
gloss varnish would be nice.  When Pauli was doing the finishing, she noticed the blue tinted drawer
and the sea foam looked really nice when the satin varnish was wet, so after we thought about it,
we decided we could capture that effect with a final coat of gloss varnish.
Here it is in the bunny mansion -- the art studio -- right before moving it into the house.
The flash picture reflected off the drawer making it look like a sunset.  Nice.
Then we moved it into the house.  Here is what our bedroom looks like now.
We have a nightstand on either side of the 4 poster bed I made about 12 years ago.
This shows the sea foam nightstand and the next one shows the giant squid nightstand.
It took about 2 years but it was worth it.  We use the storage behind the doors for various things.
Definitely books for me!
