From Blue to Pink ~ What Do You Think?


Last week I found this cute little child's beach chair.
The fabric was stained and frayed but I knew it just had to be
mine.  It would be perfect for a little shabby chic makeover.

So ...



It's been painted white and a new vintage looking pink and green
floral fabric has replaced the old frayed blue and yellow one.



What do you think?

I am joining


Bentley ~ I think you are the only one in this family who
will fit in that chair!

Lots of Love,
Susan and Bentley

    I LOVE THE REDO!!! Ingenious! It looks sooo much better! Thanks for sharing at Pinkalicious Thursday.
    I also wanted to let you know I am hosting a new, super fun Linky party this Sunday 7/17 called The Barter Bazaar! Barter your wares with other bloggers (free shopping-except for maybe a little shipping). I'll barter my cat for Bentley-hehe!
    XOXO,
    Tasha

    Really cute. I like how you sit it in front of the shutters, giving an appearance of a back. It's a precious little chair...just full of PINKNESS. :))

    Love the romantic roses. The new blog header is a hit. The sweet cup of flowers on the wicker is delightful. It's a keeper.

    Till next time...
    God bless you.

    Hi Susan,
    The chair is gorgeous, what a great eye you must have to be able to transform an old piece in this way.
    I'm hopeless at anything like this!
