How fun is THAT?

A big shout out to an incredibly patient and understanding friend who was waiting on this chair for weeks!  I literally brought the chair home to work on and that day received the phone call that my husband’s grandpa was in the hospital.  That was when our crazy few weeks began.  I struggled with the turn around time on this piece because I like to have big client projects done within the week.  For small projects I like to finish them off in a few days.  But it just wasn’t going to happen with this one.  Between the packing (twice!), and traveling (twice!), and catching up on both ends I’m just thankful for grace. 

Here is the piece before, sanded and ready for primer:

I was given a pretty wide range of creativity.  My client wanted something fun and bold, with two to three colors worked together.  This is what I came up with.
