The Piglet Chair - Before and After

I know what you're thinking. It looked pretty good before!! Well, up close, it didn't. It was one of these worst paint jobs I'd ever seen. It was done in a flat mint, and dirt and dust were just caked all over it, with no way to wipe it off. All the grooves had drips and clumps. Please don't let the pictures and your love for mint deceive you. Trust me on this one.

Ivy always tries to sneak in my pictures.

I gave it a quick run down with a satin pink paint called piglet. Kit liked it like this, but honestly there were just too many imperfections in the wood for it to pull off perfection. 

So out came the typewriter (that's the name of the black Miss Mustard Seed paint I use). And I sacrificed my hands by applying it with a rag. 

If you came to the Seabury Craft Fair this past weekend you would have seen it displaying my train case full of burp cloths. 

 

This chair is on sale in my Etsy shop. Head on over to check out all the details. (Those burp cloths will also be up for sale soon.)

Have a wonderful day in Hawaii nei… or wherever you're from. :)

Aloha, Rebecca
