Another Happy Chair

Tuesday 30 August 2011

My dear friend Carrie just moved into a new house! She and her husband have been hoping for a house for years....and the stars aligned! They rented out their townhouse and moved into a gorgeous home... all within a few weeks!

She asked me to paint this chair to go in their new master bedroom, and being I have a thing for chairs, I jumped at the chance! This chair was from her grandmother's dining set.

I sanded, primed and sprayed it with Rustoleum's Heirloom White...my go to white for spray painting! I distressed a bit and then found the PERFECT fabric to go with her medium blue walls!

Hope she loves it!

Side note...I may be MIA in the next few weeks as I get my oldest off to Kindergarten and the younger two back to preschool. I'm frazzled to say the least and furniture is on the back burner...temporarily.

Happy Wednesday!

Country Hutch in Black and White

Friday 26 August 2011

This might be my new favorite!

A good friend's sister brought this buffet and hutch to me. It was her grandmothers, and although in great condition (solid maple!), she wanted it updated. She had a vision of black and distressed/glazed white. I thought it would look nice...but now that it's completed, I love it!!

Here's how it started:

And here it is tonight. The pictures are ok, but the sun makes the back of the hutch look a little orangish.
