Yes, I found this chair on the nature strip (curb side)
Yes, I love free stuff,
&
No, I don't get embarrassed quickly stuffing it into the back of my car!
It needed love.
Daddy Moz comes to the rescue.
A Router from Ryobi will cut the new wooden. seat out perfectly
He attached a shape cutter with a bearing.
Put the two boards together, flip, & then clamp together.
Off it goes!
How good is this Router!!
My mine was working overtime about all the things I can get Daddy Moz to make now!!
A light sand.
Ready for painting.
I wanted the distressed look, & we had NO paint brushes or rollers in house!!!
What is going on!
So I had to use a car washing sponge!
(Please don't do this at home)
The stencil I used is from Urban Stencils.
A trial run first.
A light sand over the top.
I also replaced the stoppers,
So overall it cost under $5 to Makeover!!
