I love 'before and afters'
I wish I had a real before picture.
But I didn't think about it until I had already started it.
So, on my way to the gym one day I saw these ugly green chairs sitting out with someones garbage.
I drove by.
I kept thinking, 'Brent will be so mad at me if I bring more junk into his garage!!!'
BUT...
I had to get them.
They were good shape, except the color, and they both had wicker seats that were in bad shape.
But I got them.
One for Madi's desk.
One for Cassi's.
Madi's looks so great with her desk...I love it.
They have wheels on them, which Madi loves, but I am trying to talk her out of it.
If she wants to keep them, I will paint them too...we'll see.
And Cassi's' will be cut down to fit better under her table.
That is why the feet are still green.
It also goes great in her room.
Brent cut the seats to fit...I padded and covered them.
Wa-la...two free chairs!
Not bad!

Those are to stinkin cute! You make the cutest things with old stuff. I love old things but I never know what to do with them once I have them. I have an old ddor that I love, just can't decide how to make it look amazing and still old at the same time.
