This sweet little rocking chair was waiting for me when I walked into Saver's one day. I was immediately drawn to it because I have a weakness for rocking chairs. They just keep calling my name. Maybe it comes from rocking my own 5 children as babies and then 6 grandbabies. Its such a sweet wonderful memory.
It was so cute in its own right, but as usual I can't leave anything alone so
I grabbed a can of Kilz Spray paint. After it was primed well, I sanded it lightly and then used a can (ok it really took 2 cans) of Krylon's Ballerina Slipper Pink.
Now I can picture it ending up in a sweet little girl's room or
a beautiful vintage floral room.
For now it is hanging out at the antique mall.
Update- today I realized it has sold.
What do you think?
