I Didn't Paint This One

A few days ago I gave you a couple of peeks at my new vintage find. When I spied this in the antique mall last weekend I knew it had to come home with me. It matches the colors in my sun room perfectly plus it was cute.

 Those of us who paint furniture try to recreate a look like this buy using products, but it is hard to achieve this look that has happened naturally over the years.

 This has an alligator look to it. A lot of the finish is gone and that's okay. 

 I love the little white tipped legs.

I don't think they make these like they used to. This little chair is heavier than some of my larger ones. This is solid heavy wood.

 It makes a great prop for a bucket of cut hydrangeas.

So did you guess it was a child's chair? I am usually drawn to old chairs and the child size ones are so cute especially when they come with the perfect finish. 

Cost of this little cutie was $27.

Best part I didn't paint this one, but do have to seal it.

There will be another beautiful favorite room shared tomorrow in my Friday series so be sure and come back for that.

Back to painting today for me. Have a good one.
