French Chair Project

On the day our grand-daughter was born, my husband and I stumbled onto a new junk shop on our way home from the hospital. Doesn't everyone go antiquing on their way home from the hospital? I know, we are "a peculiar people".
Anyway,
we had been searching for a rocker for our house because
every grandmother needs one, right?
 
Well, when we walked in,
 there it was....
the perfect rocker for my house!
 
I love it! I can't wait for the many hours I will spend rocking this sweet baby in that rocker.
 
 
While we were looking around this new little store, we found a chair that really spoke to me.
 
I know it looks rough, but I know I can make it into something beautiful.
 
The best part about this story is the deal we were able work on the price. 
We have been watching "American Pickers" a lot lately, and my husband suggested we bundle the two items. I asked the lady at the counter if she would consider a deal, and to my surprise, it worked.
She basicly gave us the chair free for paying full price for the rocker!
Score!
 
I will post pictures when this project is finished!
I can't wait to get started.
