We're FINALLY all moved in!! Needless to say, much of our stuff is still in boxes and strewn around the house. After, and I mean right after we moved into the new house, we jumped on a plane to visit my 96 year old grandmother on one side of the state of Michigan.. and then drove 3 hours to visit my 3 year old grandson on the other side of the state! Here's a pick of my darlin' lill James:
Pretending he's a dinasour.. of course.. hehe
Well, a week has passed and I'm finally able to dig through the jungle of a garage and get to some of my projects. Yay! I finished 2 chairs and started to paint my corner hutch. Here's a peek of my lill hutch:
This corner hutch was my parents. They gave it to me when they sold the farmhouse. So, it's been around for a number of years.. Can't wait to show you the end result! Guess what color it's gonna be.. hehe
Here's the 1 of the 2 chairs I finished. I bought it at a thrift store for only $7 bucks! It was pretty icky looking when I bought it, but, knew it had potential.. boy, was I right!! LOVE this chair now!
The before:
And.. the after.. TA DA!!
Sooo cute!!
And, this is an awesome "beachy" looking chair.. kind of reminds me of an art easel.. I painted it a really light pink and shabbied it up a little bit. Sorry - I forgot to take a before picture.. sigh.
I sewed the little pillow on the seat the night before, and thought it'd look really cute with this chair.
What do ya think?!

I love it, I love the pink chair and the pillow is wonderful, I will never look at one of those ugly high back chairs the same again, I can't believe you moved and you are already doing projects.

Hi Carol, yeah, there's still ALOT to be done in the new house, but, I just couldn't wait to get back to painting and crafting fun!! Besides, the brown stain just makes me cringe.. lol I loved every minute of getting rid of it and changing it to a beautiful clean white :)
ReplyDeleteWe moved to the Mt. Dora area. LOVE it up here.
