She's finished!
Remember that brown chair
that was in the rafters of our garage?

Last week, I got to work sanding her down
and painting her an "Heirloom White."
A few days later, I added some finishing touches.

Here's the finished project . . .
I tried a variety of pillows and cushions on her,
but covering up the pretty lines of this chair
just didn't seem right.
I added a bit of fabric
and a "chair belt" to finish her off.
The buckle is
from my collection of old buckles.
I couldn't resist adding this fun detail to the seat.
She'll look beautiful in our master bedroom,
which is in need of a full overhaul.
Hmmm . . .
I'm adding a "before" photo shoot of that room
to my "to do" list tomorrow.
And an "after" photo shoot by the end of the month.
Stay tuned . . .

Hi Andrea - Welcome to blogging! I'm pretty new at it myself and really enjoying it. Your chair is totally adorable. You added the perfect touches and the belt is so creative - I never would have thought of that. I really admire the simple but wonderful life you have created for your family!

Great chair! Adding the fabric and belt was pure genius! I have never seen that done before.
