Old Oak Rocker with SK

Not all Old is Old with SK

This decrepit old rocking chair had seen beeter days. Two of his legs had been broken in the past. Glued and scewed. I took him apart and repaired the old joints,
The carving was intact and in beautiful shape.
 I fine sanded the entire chair and dusted.
I mixed several of my favorite colors of chalk paint.
After painting each section, I set it aside to dry. I sanded each coat and repeated each color, Sanded and buffed with a clear paste wax. Dry and buff, Then repeated three times.

As I patently waited for the wax to dry, I upholstered the little inset seat with the black and white pockadot fabric.

She turned out with a sassy additude and will be fun to show off.

Thanks for visiting.
