My Hero Chair

Hi BlogSpotters :)

Well, this is what I'm calling my Hero Chair, and it's dedicated to my dear husband. It's been a very tough time for me since Feb 13th, and he was wondering where his "Happy Suzi" was at. Well, here ya go, Kevin...it's sweet, simple and to the point.





Ugly chair - now sweet. Before shows someone half heartily tried to spray paint the back and legs (but, not well), and After is sort of hard to tell the difference, but it's a creamy white on the legs and more of a very light heather-gray on the seat and back area.

Oh, and on 2/24 in sheer NERVE (and the fact I've wanted to join in the fun at a crafting contest for a long time), I submitted one of my pin cushion/jewelry hangers dress forms. Why? Cuz I Can. I did it over at The Nap Time Crafters. Do I think I have a shot? Well, I have no shot at all if I don't enter, right? That about says it.

Have a nice day

  1. I hope it's a bright spot for you lately, it may be simple but sometimes a superficial facelift can help you feel a little bit better. I hope that's the case for you today, you deserve a bit of cheer. Praying for you & your husband. :)

  14. It's amazing how a little paint can go a long way to improving something - it turned out great! This project would be perfect for our new linky party featuring "Transformations" called Repurpose-Remodel-Reveal, I know our readers would love to see it too! (It starts Friday, March 2nd 2012 at 7:00 am MST and reoccures every 1st and 3rd Friday)
