2016 was an exciting year! With the opening of my store, Knicknaques, and the crazy schedule of appraisals, there wasn’t much time to get to all of the projects I have on my list. So, in 2017, I am vowing to get more custom jobs finished.
Over the past few months, I have collected an assortment of beauties that I am calling my “Emerald” collection. Somehow I ended up with a stash of green pieces and although they’re lovely in their current condition, I always envision something better.
I have had this green wing chair sitting in my garage for awhile and we actually use it there. Its also on my list to redo and I’m not sure what we will do without it in the garage. Yes, I do…I will find another chair to fill its place. Duh. Until then, I am going to chalk paint over the green and recover the seat. I’m thinking gray with a stenciled canvas seat…
I found this little cutie at a thrift store. I walked by it several times before decided that it would be adorable sanded down and stained and the top recovered in burlap. Here’s hoping that green paint wants to come off easily. 😬
I love, love, love this sewing chair. 💚 The green vinyl is in excellent condition, although the color is a little outdated. There are so many possibilities with this one! But then again, I may just leave it be. Hmmmm…
This ottoman is a popular size and can be used in any room. As a bench, an ottoman, a footstool or an accent piece. I have already recovered a similar one in a coffee bean sack and it turned out beautiful. I think I want to do something different with this one, I just haven’t decided what yet.
Come back to see how they all turned out! Feel free to leave me a comment with your suggestion. I love fresh ideas!
