In response to the double challenge, here is a special piece of furniture that belonged to my mother. She had it in her kitchen and I remember liking it's size and imagined how would I use this piece if it were in my home? Today, it is in my dining room and I store candles, napkins, and other items I use when setting the table. It originally was a light, blonde wood finish with white ceramic tiles on top. Once in my home, I painted it with greens and golds and ochre and replaced her tiles with natural grey-blue slates. I love knowing that my mom's love is infused in my home through this piece and other items throughout the house.
