plain chairs turned PURDY
I've posted pictures of my studio on my Facebook page that show my BORING chairs. Pretty much just pine chairs... nothing fancy. Then, I got myself addicted to Pinterest and found spray paint! Did you know you can pretty much spray paint anything? I am now a spray painting fool! You'll see in more posts to come.
The picture to the left is where I do all my work... Yikes, I've totally updated eveything! Not working on a laptop anymore! The one on the right is where my daughter does a lot of painting work... you can see a canvas she was working on at the time.
I sanded the chairs just enough to remove the body oils to ensure the paint would stick. Some areas of the wood absorbed a lot of paint and required some extra coats. I sprayed several light coats to prevent the dripping that can happen if you spray too much at at time. Since the chair on the right has the metal bar on the bottom, I removed that prior to any painting. After letting the final coats of paint dry for 48 hours, I sanded the edges and the areas of the chairs where your body would rub to give it a worn look. I chose not to give it a protection coat in hopes of getting some real "wear" on the chairs as well.
I found a great little table, which used to be a nightstand to go right next to the drafting table... that's redone too! Look for that in the next post.
