Busy March

Hello Sweet Tea Lovers!

I've been busy this week but anxious to share my latest project with you.

Last year we found 4 cane back chairs at Re-Store.  They were $25 each but not in perfect condition.

  

My son accidentally put his knee through one chair and another was ripped.

Handyman Hubby measured and creatively made a seat to fit in the damaged parts.

After gluing and and repairing the painting began.

I have been a long time fan of cane back chairs.

Mr. Cottage left me to the painting while he worked on his car.

I especially loved the French Provinical dainty shaped legs on these chairs.  (But too fragile for my heavy hubby. Lol.)

I started painting inside but he moved me outside when the sunshine appeared. (Much easier to see the many spots I'd missed.)

It took me all day to paint the four chairs.

After

What do you think?  Do you like the result?
And do you have any projects on the go?

It's definitely time for a well-deserved cup of tea.

Yummy cookies with my tea.  Thank you my dear friend Debbie! 

Thank you for your visit today!

See you soon!
Karen
