Anyway, on to the rocking chair. I am working with a photographer who's just starting out and is looking for props. She is always looking for kid's chairs...and I ran into this one for $4.99 at Savers. She was in rough shape (see the stain where someone had been sitting?), but very sturdy!
I cleaned it up and painted it with Aura White Dove ($2 in the mistint bin!! Score!). I kind of dry brushed it because she wanted it very "worn". I dropped it off yesterday to one very happy photographer!
That's my model...my 3rd son. Disregard the messy shirt and oatmeal in the hair.

allison, that chair rocks! ;) it really is adorable- i think white was the perfect choice, keeping it nice and sweet.
The white is perfect! I have a rocking chair waiting for paint in my garage and I am going with white also! I am also planning on stencilling the name on the top and then distressing that also!

I loved the distressed finish (and oatmeal in the hair makes for a relaxed photo shoot :))
Love the color and painting technique. Perfect for a girl or a boy for the photos. No wonder your client loved it!
