Rocking Chair before and after

I was picking at the local Salvation Army Monday morning and found this rocker...in the other corner sat a little side table... both are solid wood and fine quality so I decided to grab them and see what I could do!







I used Annie Sloan chalk paint in pure white- 2 coats and sanded with the finest sandpaper I had on hand. I waxed the seat and handles of the rocker and put a little wax on. For the tabletop I sprayed Shellac protection film when I was done just in case there were spills




They both looked a little bare after I painted them so I decided be little more creative and dig out my stencils. The stencil I used is a template from my Auntie Martha Stewart and I used old violet paint from Annie Sloan







Do you love it?
Tomorrow I am showing you the other things that I found and how I transformed them!
I can't wait to show you

  2. Ohhhh....þessi ruggustóll er alveg að kála mér! Ef þú vilt losna við hann þá máttu bara senda hann til mín í hvelli.

    Púðinn er líka æði, er þetta er Feed-línunni í Target?
