"R" is for Rocking Chair #2

Paint: kids rocking chair makeover

A neighbor friend had this little brown solid wood rocking chair she wanted to freshen up:

After a couple coats of heirloom white and some distressing:

This kid size rocking chair is fresh and ready for her little girl:

Here's how I painted the rocking chair:

1. Sand entire chair removing poly and loose bits.

2. Prime, start with the chair upside down then flip right side up:

3. Paint two coats heirloom white satin spray:

4. Sand to distress:

5. Stain with Minwax early american:

6. Seal with Minwax wipe on poly clear satin:

(Apply additional coats on seat, arms and back top piece to protect paint.)

Ready for use:
