OK well here goes. This is my first project. I found this old, ugly, very dirty harvest gold piano bench at a local thrift store. I paid $7.50 for it. I went to a local "Home" improvement store (hint hint) and picked up this lovely green paint. I liked the way the bench opened, so I very carefully took off the hardware to use later. I sanded the ugly dark brown legs down and painted them green. I pulled off the fabric and batting from the bench seat, and using a pillowcase with pretty pink flowers and matching green leaves, recovered the bench. Not bad for my first project I must admit!

This is awesome, Anita. You are multi-talented. Are you doing these pieces for yourself or selling them? I had an old French Provincial night stand for years that I was going to re-do but never did. I think it got tossed when we moved. Too bad.
ReplyDeleteRight now I am doing these for myself. You never know though. I may do this as a business. Too bad about the nightstand. That would have been a fun project.
