A chest full of hopes


My sisters and I each got a hope chest for christmas. We were very excited. The dilemma was, they were unfinished unassembled hope chests. So until this summer they've been sitting in there boxes in the yard shed just waiting to be finished. We each got our finishing supplies, (our choice of color) our sand paper, our creativity, and went to work. They are now all sitting in our room just waiting to be filled with hopes. I used a stain called "weathered gray". I was going for a vintage-y look. It was a lot of fun to put together. (I got some first time experience putting a piece of furniture together, too.) I love that it's personalized and I'll be able to use in my own home some day.

Do you have a hope chest?

  1. The weathered grey looks great with the colour of your wall. I don't have a hope chest, but I like yours! :)

    1. I know. =) It really goes well with our whole room. Sorta vintage, but still classic.

So whether you eat, or drink or what ever you do,
do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31
