POTENTIAL

One of my most frequent memories of my Mom while growing up, is of her sanding and repainting furniture. She is a pro at seeing the potential a piece of furniture has and transforming it into her vision. She still does this and loves doing it.

My sister inlaw Tasmin gave us her old and used rocking chair when Quinton was born. I just love this rocking chair and believe it is a beautiful piece of furniture, but like my Mom saw the potential it had to be even more beautiful.

Tasmin had just painted it white to match her little girls room and by the time we got is had some dents and a few paint chips and the cushions need a complete transformation.

I started working on it at the begining of June and my goal was to have it finished by the end of June. Well, June is almost over and it's not quite finished, but it is coming along. Sometimes when I look at it I feel confident that I can do it. Other times I feel like, "what the heck did I get myself into."
