The Little Red Rocking Chair....Another Furniture Fairy tale...

Once upon a time there was a little wooden rocking chair that was loved by the Princess Kerry who rocked on her and rocked  her dolls while she was growing up...


But yes she did grow up and the poor little rocking chair was all alone and just dull looking....
 

Many years passed well it was a couple  of decades  in truth and the rocking chair started to look really sad...He had faded had  some chips in the wooden hand rails and rockers but the new Prince Aidan loved  the rocking chair and he didn't care how he looked...

Kind King Kevin sanded him down and gave him a coat of stain and varnish but alas this didn't last long as  Prince Aidan was very rough on his rocking chair  ...

Finally Queen Dee flipped she wanted the rocking chair to be beautiful again...she had heard through the blog land of a new product called Rust-Oleum 2x and wanted to try this magic on the rocking chair...

King Kevin searched everywhere for this paint to please his Queen and he finally found it at Bunnings...Oh the joy in the Kingdom that night was great...( but that is another story )....


King Kevin sprayed a primmer onto the rocking chair even though you do not have to as the can says it is a primer and paint but the King didn't want to hear the Queen nagging  if there was a bleed through because if it did bleed he knew he would bleed  as well so prime he did prime....


Queen Dee gave the first coat of spray in the beautiful shade of "Gloss APPLE RED" it was a beautiful shade and the Queen was so happy with the coverage she could have got away with one coat but decided to give it another go better to be safe than sorry was this Queens motto....


The good Queen gave the rocking chair two coats of paint and the little chair was transformed by the magic in the paint..


When  Prince Aidan saw his beautiful  Little Red Rocking Chair he squealed  with delight...Well it sounded like a wounded animal but we wont go there...

The King carried the Little  Red Rocking Chair into the Princes room where it looked stunning....


All the toys wanted to sit on Little  Red Rocking Chair the Queen found some royal robes that the Queens Mother had made they were placed onto Little Red Rocking Chair so now the Little Red Rocking Chair looked just perfect....


                                                 And they all lived Happily Ever After .....

                     

                            Before the magic....                                             After the magic............
