Yay! but don't get too excited.
Two views of the chalk-painted counter stool
I have now finished all three and find myself relatively satisfied. Using the chalk paint certainly beat stripping and sanding before painting. I didn't know how much work it would be to buff the wax coating though. I imagine Dave and I will be buffing furniture while watching TV through the rest of the winter. I've got enough done that we can sit on them, but they don't feel as nice as I know they could.
Look to the left, see my 7 year old runners; the not-as-gorgeous but brand-new runners are to the right. And I'm keeping them both, even though the old ones have started moving away from the soles.
This weekend, I may get instructions on how to send myself the photos I take with my phone. Depends on Emily's good will. She's a good person, but I think I try her patience....

My old phone doesn't take/receive good photos. My daughter tries to send me pictures of things from her phone but they are so small on mine I can hardly see them. The last time she had something I wanted I had her private post it to me on FB.
ReplyDeleteI do like the colors more in the older shoe as pink has never been my color, but you'll be fabulous in them.
The furniture color is terrific! Great choice.
