The 18 Month Project

I have lots of projects ... to the chagrin of my sweet husband.  But he carries on, the trooper. :)

Kevin had a chair that was out in the back porch and it was there for a long time getting rained on and sunned on.  It was just turning into junk.  Which is about the time I decide to take on a project.

This is what it looked like before.



Nothing special....  I took it apart and was very careful about taking pictures of where things went.  And then it was time to decide what color ... and I got stuck. I also saw how much upholstery fabric cost and that's when the chair went on the back burner.  BUT it survived the move to east Mesa and the first six months of  pregnancy and irrational hormonal decision making, and I turned it into this!





My little piano room is coming along nicely, I think.


Ben likes it too.

Natalie Performs!!



This is our favorite song right now.  Natalie knows all the words and Ben knows pretty much all the hand motions.  I will get video of Ben doing those soon.  For now just enjoy this!
