Remember my front porch makeover? I have to tell you about that cool over-sized bench I scored.
Kari was driving home and she saw a bench/chair like this on the road holding a yard sale sign. She pulled over and asked the woman who was having a yard sale how much it was. This cute little woman said she makes them out of reclaimed wood. Kari called me and told me all about it so I ran up there to place my order. So when I got my awesome chair I was surprised at how splintery it was, but it was reclaimed old wood afterall. So I sanded it down and painted it white. Then I added a dark stain on top of the white and then wiped it off…that way it created more dimension and didn’t look so bright.
I love the end result. I am going to find some fall garland, pumpkins and hay bales to doll it up. What do you think?
So I guess I have Kari to thank for my awesome porch chair so…THANKS, Kar! 🙂
