you might think I'm referring to my lack of posts...

but I'm actually referring to the

 unfinished pine counter top in my laundry room.

It used to look like this

quite a difference , ehh?

here

Since we've been renovating our kitchen 

I've set up a little coffee station for

myself on the laundry room counter

here's a little box I bought years ago that 

works well for little knick knacks

and such

The top was so easy to do and so economical.

It's a simple piece of Pine from Home Depot.

I had HD cut it to the length I needed, and 

then attached it to the under side of the counter with "L" brackets.

I recently stained it with a poly-shade

in Walnut.

It's such a quick project, I can't believe it took me this

to finish.

I'm so happy with it.
