Makeover

I bought this bad boy at an Estate sale last fall for $3. 
I love it because of how it makes Logan sit up well.  I love that there is a place for Logan to rest his feet...every single one of Logan therapist stressed how important it is for a child with poor posture to have their feet resting somewhere instead of dangling.  I love that it looks like a chair that's high up rather than a high chair.

Best $3 I've spent in awhile.

The chair is from the 1980's and I swear there was food from the 1980's crusted on it.  It needed a makeover.

Commence makeover.
Let's keep in mind that it's the chair that I love.  The goal of the makeover was not to make it look any worse than what it was before...easy peasy.

Takin' a break from helping .....ummm mom this is taking awhile, mind if "I go get some coffee"

The color is Kona Brown.  In my opinion it's more Kona than brown - but as it turns out our table and chair set appears to be in the Kona family?  I don't LOVe how it turned out but I think I went above and beyond of my initial goal of not making it look any worse, I think I actually made it look better and I managed to sand away all the crusty 1980's food.  It took 3 days worth of naptimes and when Logan sat back in it tonight for the first time in 3 days, he didn't notice.

You like it love?
