1930’s Chair Redo {In ASCP} – Before & After


In my opinion, older furniture is by far the best – ever. Take this 30’s style chair that I redid in Anne Sloan Chalk Paint last weekend.  Isn’t it the coolest thing since sliced bread???  I think so!

But here’s my issue -- once I put the ASCP and coffee bean sack on it – I fell in love. The kind of love that will always get in the way of selling any of the furniture I redo. This could be a problem….

Yes…that’s part of a coffee bean sack right there on that seat!  It looks like it was meant to be there.  Wouldn’t you agree?

I’m sure this little chair will make someone else very happy. So I shouldn’t be selfish :) Right?
Oh…and in case you were wondering, here are the before pictures.

You can tell this thing was pretty well used over the years. And over the past year has been a catchall for my fiancés socks. lol.

    1. Yes, I am always amazed at what paint can do for a piece of furniture. This chair turned out great and didn't take long at all to do.
