Cute bench right?? I thought so too. The finish wasn't in great condition with some scratches and dings but the bones were in perfect condition. I didn't have to whip out the nail gun or anything!
Oh, and let me show you the best part...
It has STORAGE! As a mother this is crucial to survival/sanity.
As I mentioned before, my sister is in town visiting. I was thinking I would just do the entire thing in white and make it shabby. My sis suggested, in all her brilliancy, to paint the little details and front panel in a really pale (I totally just had to google if it is "pail" or "pale"... blonde moment) green. I LOVE this suggestion! What do you think?
And don't forget about the extra storage!
So, that is the second bench I have attempted and I have to say, I am very happy with it! THey might be my new thing... look out chairs, I am replacing you with benches! Good call on the green Shena.
you find the best stuff!
ReplyDeleteI agree!! It's so super cute!
ReplyDeleteAmazing! And the green was a nice touch. High five for Shena.
ReplyDeleteYep, I think all the chair are in trouble if you whip up any more cute benches like this. I love the pale/pail(?) color scheme you chose. It turned out just adorable and storage to boot!!
