Can you believe it, I am on a blogging streak! This is totally random but they make me so happy that I thought I would share. When we bought this house, we knew that the basement had a small "chair graveyard." This conveyed. Well, there were five sad little caned chairs, with the caning broken in all of them. Many of them needed to be glued too (see the one on the left) but luckily all had strong little legs. So I sanded, ripped the caning out, and filled the holes. More sanding.
Then I painted. Ignore the one in the back, I was thinking of mixing my own yellowish green but I didn't like it. The blue is so awesome! It's a little bright but I don't care. I like it. Then we cut a little seat and covered them with...get this....the fabric from my mama's kitchen curtains! I felt great about that because I so wanted to keep the character that has always been there. Then I feel like there is a little of her there, cooking with me.
Finished! I love the way they POP! Check out my hardwood floors, they are the best!
