This little chair has seen lots and lots of love over the years.
My parents purchased a set of these chairs at an antique auction years ago.
I recovered this chair in our old house and then my sweet little angel found a black sharpie.
A BLACK SHARPIE on my beautiful Robert Allen fabric.
Then after the sharpie incident it just kept getting beat up. Over and over!
I just gave up at that point, young toddler C was a force to be recconed with and one I was not willing to battle the art of recovering.
Therefore, we went into waiting mode!
Fast-forward to our move here, I knew I wanted to recover but didn't know what in.
So I shopped for a while until I found this smokey cut velvet wonderfulness!!!
The upholsterer brought her back to life in no time!!
I used my white Annie Sloan, clear wax, then dark wax, then clear wax, then watered down some guilders paste and left an awesome metallic sheen to the chair. LOVE how it turned out!
I love how the dark wax and the guilders paste look layered together!
