So. I WILL admit it....my name is Danielle and I am addicted to Goodwill. True story. I have never been a fan of paying retail for ANYTHING and now that we live in a city that actually has a Goodwill, I will forever be addicted! . We had a space in our master bedroom that needed a little something. This little gem looked just right :) It started off rough. I mean, no wonder it was at Goodwill! The wood was scratched all to pieces and the fabric looked like it had never been washed!
First I had to sand it. A lotttttttt. There was so much furniture polish on this chair! so after what seemed like a year of sanding, I wiped it down with denatured alcohol to make sure there was nothing left on the wood so the paint would stick. I used Behr ultra white paint and polyurithane as a top coat. The cushion covers came off (thank GOD!!) so I bleached the covers 3 times...I am a germ-a-phob! And the finished product turned out great! It matched our bedroom perfect! Its the perfect little chair to watch tv in!
Love it :)
