This chair is a bit on the small side, but now stands tall with it's texture and color. It's always fun to see how each pice of furniture shows a new personality after you start. NEVER FAILS... I start with one color or technique and end in another. From the distressing to the waxing, each piece is unique to itself!

ReplyDeleteso pleased to know I am not the only one who starts with one idea, and somehow ends up in a different direction...funny how the piece "speaks" to you, isn't it? (or how you screw it up enough that you have to adapt...you know, not that I EVER do that...)
