Word of the day: pret-ti-fy (verb) To make pretty, esp. in a small, petty way.
Okay, so not really renovate, as I don't own any kind of dwelling to renovate, but I'm enjoying the alliterativeness of my resolutions so I'm going with it.
What I have to renovate may not be a kitchen or bathroom or roof or anything quite that fun but it's still stuff that I need to do. I've got various pieces of furniture - side tables, shelving units, a vanity-type table, an ugly plastic drawer unit - that I've been meaning to make pretty and just haven't yet. So when I move into my fabulous new apartment it will be high time I make those things look fabulous too.
In fact, I discovered this today, which will be the inspiration for my vanity table. This table is ugly faux-pine and needs to not be ugly and this is one renovate-y idea I not only like but I can actually accomplish. As for the other stuff, I'm not sure yet what I want to do but I've got a couple months before the move to figure all that out.
Resolution #4: Renovate all that ugly furniture into something pretty. Yay pretty!
