A little red bench - just right for a bench stack.
Don't look behind it!
WARNING!
Dangerous living room filled with projects to finish.
The bench is actually sitting on top of an unfinished table.
Bought it at an estate sale.
Liked the detail on the legs.
Hated the finish so I sanded it right off.
Americana Decor Chalky Finish in Rouge.
A coat of Minwax stain in Mission Oak.
I was planning to show you how the finish looked.
However I did not realize my camera was coated in yellow pollen.
So here is a pic of yellow pollen on Mission Oak-stained Rouge Red Chalky Finish paint.
Sounds like art to me.
See y'all!

My wife just cleared off her morning dewy car that was coated with pine pollen. Tis the season in southeastern NC!
ReplyDeleteLove the red! I'm planning to do that with a second old card catalog we found. Love the little burst of bright color!
ReplyDeleteMore furniture for me to drool over. Thunderstorms here today and tomorrow, so after the day job looks like there will be no outdoor time. It will be a good time to get to the very few things I got last weekend plus, hopefully, getting a few things in my new store. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I really like that red! Pollen is awful this time of year! I'm waiting for the pines to bloom and cover us in yellow. Ugh!

You are my soul sister or at least we have soul piles O crap to re-do! Love that you are brave enough to share a picture of yours (even if you told us not to look)...something I can't do right now. Your little stool is ideal in red.
ReplyDeleteOur world is yellow, too. It's making me wheezy.
ReplyDeleteI can't resist little benches...looks like you can't, either.
Extra kisses for little Scout!
Love that stool.......and the color too!!
ReplyDeleteI would not say you had a mess........I have the mess! LOL

ReplyDeleteI think the pollen adds a touch of an outdoorsy feel to the bench! ;-) Cute bench and I love the color!
ReplyDeleteThat red is great! It's so fun. So much better than the original finish. Our allergy season is coming soon. I can feel it in my eyes and nose already.
