before and afters

So recently I have been helping my mom sort through stuff and toss/donate. There have been a few pieces of furniture that I claimed instead of allowing to be donated. I am trying my hand at the cottage shabby chic look and I am having too much fun. Although I am probably spending too much time on redoing stuff and not helping sort through! anyway here are some before and after pics!

This chair is a chair from Portland Oregon dating back to June 11th,  1919! Sure hope I didn't destroy something worth some $$$$ but I highly doubt it! the leather seat was in horrible condition and I am positive I will be getting sick from asbestos cause the padding was unmentionable!

AFTER'S

well I am back to having fun!
