Another shabby chair redo.....


Hello friends! 

I've enjoyed redoing a couple of chairs, if you missed my last one, you can see it here.

I love how this one turned out. I am also loving the extra seating I have, especially because it is in white! :)
 This one took 5 coats of paint. Ugh, I thought it was never going to be done.



Here is the before....






And the afters....






I love the details that are on the chair.




Here it is without the pillow. It's the caning that took so long to paint but it was worth it.

That's Olivia under the chair, she likes to sneak into all of my photos.
She follows me around the house like she is a dog.





These (faux~ I wish they were real) peonies are making me dream of spring. It will be here before we know it!

    That chair turned out beautiful, Shanon! I LOVE the cane back. I know the feeling of thinking that a painting project is never going to end, that's how I felt when I painted my black armoire white. UGH, it was awful!
