Nursery Furniture. Buy new or refinish?!

This is our first child so instead of buying brand new furniture, we wanted to make memories of us redoing some old stuff instead!

Let me tell y'all, it has taken FOREVER and it is a lot of hard work! Only spent about $150 for the furniture, knobs and paint but used a lot of elbow grease and sandpaper.

We started these projects when I was about 10 weeks along and are finishing them up at 21 weeks. It was a long process but it was absolutely worth it if you ask me!

What are your opinions, momma's?! New or old furniture?!
