Rocking Chair Metamorphosis

Joe's dad and stepmom gave us their HUGE old wood rocking chair as sort of a DIY piece for the nursery that we could make our own.  It was a beautiful piece beforehand but we sanded and painted it over weeks, completing the project together.  Now feeling very accomplished and proud of ourselves, we'd like you to see the metamorphosis:

Sand! Sand! Sand! 

Prime! Prime! Prime!

Primer gave it a grey tint.

First coat of paint.

Painting on a rainy day.

After the final paint coat dried.

Final product.  Good job, baby daddy!

Baby's beautiful nursery!
