Hello All!
I am actually pleased it’s Monday! The girls are back in school, there are no soccer games – we had 5 this weekend, no volunteer commitments – I worked at the Annual New Albany Classic & Grand Prix on Sunday beginning at 7:30 am and now I can resume my normal schedule. Whew.
What is normal?
Well, I wish I knew. It has been a busy few months and now I am preparing for my first show!

Be sure to attend. It will have an amazing group of vendors.
Before I share pictures of what I am bringing to the show, I thought I would share some chairs I completed.
On Friday, I shared our dining room table.

We obviously needed chairs to go with. Since I have a soft spot for random chairs, I gathered what I had on hand and used the same painting technique for each one.

I get giddy when I find matching chairs.

Using an oops paint in a pale blue shade, I paint directly on the wood. No primer or sanding is done prior.
Once the blue is applied, I rough up the paint with a sanding block.

Then I paint with another oops paint in a light grey.

A little more sanding and then I apply a stain. The left has the stain.

Remove the nasty fabric that came with the chair, add padding and finish with the fabric of your choice. I chose a drop cloth to finish all the chairs.


I finished 5 chairs and am in search for one more.

I look forward to sharing a growing pile of finished goods! These will be making their debut at the show!
Make it a great Monday!
