House Renovations, Day 10

We have gotten a lot done today, the top of the kitchen is painted, but the beadboard still needs paint. I also put a coat of primer on the rest of the cupboards and got a coat of primer on the bathroom walls. I've also started working on refinishing/fixing up some treasures we found in the house after we bought it. In the attic we found an old crutch which is going to be repurposed into a towel/wash cloth rack for the bathroom, a large soapbox which is going to be repurposed into fruit container for the kitchen, a produce caddy which is going to be repurposed into a napkin/condiment holder for the kitchen table, and in a cupboard we found an old crock which is going to have the lid repaired and then it will be used for something (haven't figured out what yet, I wanted to use it to make my sauerkraut but I'm thinking it would be best to use it for holding/storing non-edible items as I'm not sure how old it is or if the glaze is safe/suitable for storing food items).
