So you would think after the last chair I bought to go with my new gray desk didn't fit that I would start measuring chairs before buying them.....but its just not so. This chair was found at Goodwill by a friend of mine. The picture looked decent so I thought why not. Well it of course doesn't fit, but it still needed some love. Whoever painted this chair before me did a horrible job! The paint rubbed off on my hands before sanding and I knew this would take SEVERAL coats of paint. But nonetheless I had to do it.

Chair Before |
I found a quart of pale blue oops paint at Home Depot. It wasn't exactly the shade I was looking for so using my handy acrylic craft paint I tinted the blue to a color that I liked more. After 2 long days of painting, there is vast improvement.

Chair After |
I think having a bright colored chair always livens up a room. Its the perfect shade for Easter. Hopefully my sister (who I am giving the chair to) likes it!
What I'm working on next:
I've been inspired to make some sort of decor for my front door. Come back to see what I come up with!
