Zane got a buzz cut as it was just easier. I tried to give Dave a normal haircut and it was a bit of a challenge. I still need to trim up the sides a bit shorter, which you can't see in this picture. My perfectionist ways are telling me to fix it so it looks better.
Awhile back I bought a nightstand on Craigslist for $25 for Zane's room. I've been taking my sweet time refinishing it. It is good quality, but it was in rough looking shape when I got it. It looked like someone tried to partially refinish it as it had different stain colors in places. It also had some pretty ugly, beat up handles on it. I forgot to take a picture until after I sanded it down and filled the nail holes so it doesn't look too bad in the before picture.
I sanded it, stained it, put some polyurethane on it and added new hardware. I scored on the hardware, they were on clearance at Menards. This never happens to me so it was a pleasant surprise. The handles were regularly almost $5 each, but I got them for $2 each.

AFTER
Zane's bedroom is a work in progress, but it is slowly coming along. I ordered a bookcase right when this whole coronavirus started and we need it delivered as I will not let Dave try to carry it upstairs with all his back, neck, shoulder issues. So we have to wait until things reopen before they can deliver.
