Found this armoire at an estate sale after the ninety-year-old owner passed away. Her daughter warned me it had 'issues': one door wouldn't close properly, the mirror was cloudy, and there was water damage on the base. 'Mom refused to get rid of it,' she said, shaking her head, 'claimed Grandpa proposed in front of it or some nonsense.' It took me six months of weekend work to restore it. I had to rebalance the doors, resurface the mirror, and rebuild part of the base. I posted progress photos in woodworking forums on the Tedooo app, where I sell restored furniture, and people kept saying I was wasting time on 'outdated junk.' But when I finally got that door to close smoothly and the mirror to reflect clearly again, I understood why she'd kept it all those years. Now it lives in my bedroom, and every morning when I open those doors, I think about all the mornings she must have done the same thing. Sometimes the best antiques are the ones that fought hard to stick around; they've earned their place in someone else's story.

My mother-in-law walked through my living room last week and said my home looks like a "starter apartment." I'm 47, divorced, and apparently living like a college student because I sold everything decent to pay the lawyer who couldn't even get me alimony.

I'd been staring at these old shutters in my garage for months, too broke to hire someone, too proud to ask for help. That afternoon, still burning from her comment, I dragged them inside and decided I'd either create something beautiful or have a spectacular breakdown trying.

I started with yard sale shelves and leftover paint, my hands shaking from either caffeine or pure desperation. When I needed brackets, I found a woodworker on the Tedooo app selling extras from his workshop cleanout for practically nothing. He even threw in screws because, as he put it, "we've all been there."

By evening, something magical was happening. Each crooked shelf somehow looked intentional, each shutter frame told a story. I posted a picture in my little Tedooo shop where I've been selling refinished frames to make ends meet, and suddenly women were messaging me asking if I could make one for them too.

Last night, arranging my books on those shelves, I realized something. My mother-in-law was wrong. This isn't a starter apartment. This is a comeback story, one imperfect shelf at a time.

🤦🏼‍♀️ How can I get this plate out? It slipped in when the sink was loaded with dirty dishes. 🙄 I've tried a sharp knife tip at the edge, soapy water, and draining the water to get olive oil around the edges. What's next? Help, please!
