The rocking chair was a gift from Mike's grandma when they left Kansas for the west coast last April. Gabe is nearly 4 months old and I started the project about that long ago.
With sanding help from Alex, I was able to get the primer and stain on tonight.
It could use another coat of stain.
And it needs a sealer, but it is done enough to deliver tomorrow before Mike's grandma arrives from Nebraska.
I used to work along side my dad when he was stripping and refinishing furniture.
Even though my basic role as an 8 year was only to hand him rags, I learned a lot from my dad.
I know this is not my best work, but I will let the perfectionist in me step aside because it's more important to deliver a rocking chair so a great grandma can rock her great grandson.
