Swing & Old Stool....

take pics before you start...take pics before you start...take pics before you start...i think i need to write that about 500 more times...i CAN NOT remember to do that!! anyway, i came across this little swing in my parents barn...someone had given it to my dad a while back thinking he had a small grandchild...the small 9 year old won't fit in it...i have a special someone that is about 6 months old that is gonna love this!! i can't wait to put him in it....

this is the back of the swing...since i forgot the before pics...this is what the wood looked like before i stained it...

almost done with the front
here it is drying...i used the color chestnut...only because i already had the stain on hand...i don't think this would be my 1st choice...the project cost me nothing...and i'm pretty happy about that!!
while i was working i decided to spray this old stool that was light blue and very ugly...i thought i would have enough spray paint but i ran out before i got finished...at least it looks better...i would much rather have one of the folding ones that i could keep stored...like how i throw little subtle hints in here and there...lol
so thats it for me today...not very exciting but both things needed to be done...bigger and better things to come....i have a list a mile long and home depot is calling my name.....

Peace, Love, & Joy
