Before and after chair makeover :)
This sweet wooden chair had a wobble. Luckily it was able to be disassembled to start all over.
That also made it perfect to stain part and paint part for a fun two tone color scheme.
A good scrub was the first step to remove any thing like fingerprints, dried food etc that would affect paint adherence.
The color portion would come from my new box of Jolie Paint products.
I chose Jolie Paint in verdigris; a soft robin's egg blue.
After the first coat of paint went on there some areas on the bow back that needed further sanding. Easy enough to do and repaint. Two coats were the perfect coverage.
AS you can see above it is only a tester size of this color but even after 2 coats on this chair, there is half a tester pot left!!
The wood seat was power sanded down to bare wood.
To seal the pretty paint, Jolie Paint's clear wax wax hand rubbed on.
Then it was time to reassemble the chair adding counter sunk screws into the legs thru the seat frame for additional support along with fresh glue. The seat back was screwed in place
and wahlaaaa

Very nice paint job. The deconstruction of a simple chair has given me plenty of ideas. Thank you.
