Antiquing is a fantastic spring project and a great way to spend the weekend with the family. I encourage everyone to pick an item and use it as their "this week" project. If you think a project will take more than a week to complete, pass.

For spring, you can find and paint antique desks or dressers (you might even have one in the basement!) with a glossy crème and replace the hardware.

In the kitchen, paint old, outdated cupboard doors and cabinet framing with white or crème melamine, and switch out knobs for a new, updated look.
