I CANNOT resist little chairs!  Tiny decorative ones to child size.  I WOULD collect them and have the decorative shelf that runs the length of two entire walls in our living room FILLED with them if I could!  Alas, I really AM trying to ‘pare done’ on the clutter at home.  although you’d NEVER guess that if you saw my craft room  . . .and the overflow thereof into the dining and living rooms!
So, I’ll just have to be content to ‘love them and let them go’ (to my booth at Stars!) Â Found TWO of these little solid Maple cuties last week.
The seats were a bit worn, but the LEGS were in perfect shape.  I don’t know WHAT it is about child size chair legs and DOGS chewing them up, but the majority of little chairs like this that I come across have CHEWED UP LEGS.  (I’m assuming it is from a dog!) Â
So I brought these 2 little cuties home and gave them a little TLC in the form of a good sanding; a coat of primer and then 2 coats of my ‘beachy blue’ paint!
I decided to NOT distress these two. Â They are in my booth at Stars.
Michael is on vacation today and tomorrow, so I am excited to have him be able to come to Stars WITH me and bring a few BIG items that I can’t haul by myself; AND do a major re-vamping of BOTH of my booths this week.
Thought you would be interested in more ideas from Better Homes and Garden newsletter on updating old furniture. Take a peek. I get so excited to see what you create out of crappy pieces into a work of art. Keep up the creative work !
