Restyled Rocking Chair

This project began with a thrift store rocking chair.  I forgot to take before pics due to my overwhelming excitement... eek!!!  Let me set the stage: sturdy but ugly.  This rocking chair was 80's grandmother at it's best.  The seat was blue/gray. The natural stained pine was covered in tacky peach, blue and tan, flower decals. YUCK.  After a light sanding, white spray primer was applied. I followed by adding a yellow, quick drying, gloss spray paint.  The seat was recovered in a cream cable-knit sweater from the thrift store.  The sweater was wrapped around the seat, stapled, and the excess was trimmed away. 

Project time: From start to finish- 3 hours( most of which was waiting for the primer and paint to dry.)
