Over Memorial Day weekend James went up to his cabin in Island Park for his annual GUYS fishing trip. This left me home alone for 4 days to get my craft on! This is the amazing KSL beauty I bought a few weeks back for only 20 bucks! What a deal right!? I saw her on line and instantly saw her potential. Luckily I found her before anyone else, because she was only on line for 14 minutes before I called and bought it! It was a good 2 day long process of sanding, priming, sanding again, painting, sanding again, a final coat of paint, and last but not least staining. But I could not be more happy with the end result! She is AMAZING! Now all I have to do is finish up the bench cushion im making for the seat. And then vwa-la, she will be complete! I love turning another mans JUNK into my TREASURE!!
This is how she looked to start out...
