HIGH CHAIR FLOWER STAND: FURNITURE FLIPPERS
One thing that I LOVE about flipping furniture is taking one thing and making it into another. A friend was nice enough to give me this old high chair, and since it was a bit rickety I decided to turn it into a High Chair Flower Stand!
There are some furniture pieces that are easy to find and cheap to buy almost every time. I tend to gravitate towards these because, well, I am cheap. I love making pretty things for my house on a budget!

Since this one was free it definitely fit quite nicely into the budget! And I will admit that this cutie has displaced my green chair. Right now I am on a black, grey and pink kick and this piece is perfect next to my back door.

My starter piece was quite scuffed up and “shakey”. I used wood glue to keep the spindles fixed securely in their place. Once that dried I added a coat of Charcoal Grey Chalk Paint. Then I added two coats of Vintage Duck Egg Chalk Paint. A bit of sanding once the chair was dry helped to add that vintage look that we all love so much!
Let me just say that this is one of the things that makes this look so fun: you do not have to shoot for perfection. Furniture pieces are supposed to look worn and used and loved. This is one more reason to attempt your first DIY project! No perfection required!
