So when I finish them I will have the after. My drawers and cabinets on my side of the bathroom are emptied more than anything else in the house yet they get the worst the quickest! Okay....that is a lot of dental floss. Everything looks wonderful and I think I will tackle my bathroom first since I want it to look like yours. I love your story and picture of the blackbird.
