paint delayed.. moving on

So here I sit, waiting for the paint that may not have been sent. Further inquiry this am reveals this may be true but waiting confirmation. Back in the garage the chair got more paint and sanding and to prepare for next projects I repaired, sanded and scrubbed this cabinet and chair.

check out the EATON's tag still attached to bottom, $9.95!!

An email confirmed the paint has not been sent.. OMG. For sure time to move to next projects. Today started -12 and overcast and did not really warm up so another good day to keep on task. I waxed up the square chair and staged a few pics to post.


I have a new color called Chesapeake blue from CeCe Caldwell's Paints. It reminded me of a vintage color and this vintage solid wood chair seemed the perfect choice to match it too. Funny how after scrubbing and sanding and painting it all pretty, I heavily sanded it to add yet another color to this already 5 layered chair and make it look old again wink emoticon The fresh new "old" look has been sealed with a couple coats of wax, again in keeping with the vintage look and feel. It comes with an optional tie on cushion freshly laundered for a wee bit of padding and charm.

the cabinet had hardware removed, shelf brackets realigned, drawer liner removed/paint can flattened and made ready to paint. I have it in mind for another FFF contest for February so now have to wait for it as well to paint.

I also decided to use my new sugar plum color paint on the jewel box from Sharon so it got minor repairs done and will dry overnight.

Tonight's viewing enjoyment was a couple Scandal episodes followed by 4 of Schitt's Creek which has been in the Oscar news. Not sure about it but will try a few more.
