As we get close to a holiday weekend, besides stars and
stripes…all I can think of are all of the AMAZING garage sales that will be
going on!
Last weekend, I hit some great ones and thought I would share my findings and
DIY-ing with you!! At my first stop in the morning, I found this chair looking pretty
sad, and decided to take it home for the HUGE price tag of $5!!!! Yes, you
heard me right :)
When I saw it, the shape reminded me, in a vintage way, of
those industrial looking, metal chairs that seem to popping up in design
magazines recently. Like these:
Much to my surprise, this light yellow chair has had many
lives before me, and about 5 other AWFUL pastel colors to prove it. With the
help of my AWESOME, Black and Decker hand sander, some sand paper, and some
metallic spray paint, this junky chair has a new, “industrial” look.
Don’t forget to seal your work to protect it from all the
wear it will be getting:) I use this product which is really easy to spray on.
Happy hunting for your next gem!
