Refurbished Rocking Chair Part One

I wanted a rocking chair for my front porch because i live in the country and enjoy drinking coffee in the morning and reading outside.  I found this one at the local Goodwill store for only $20 so i bought it. The wood was split down the middle and really dirty so it took some work to revitalize it but now it is looking good and almost complete.  Here is the how to for sprucing up old furniture and refurbishing chairs...

SUPPLIES:

• Rocking Chair
• Sanding Blocks
• Wood Glue
• A Wet Towel
• Sealer and Primer Spray Paint

DIRECTIONS:

 




1) Take the wood glue and seal each crack of the chair.  You have to hold it for awhile until it sticks or it will shift and dry off center.






















2) Once it is dry, take the chair outside on a nice day and sand every single part of it.  This will remove the grimy top layer and reveal fresh wood.  It will also open the pores up for your sealer and primer to sink in.











3) Spray every surface of the chair with the sealer and primer.  Let it dry.

YOU'RE DONE WITH PART ONE! Here is how it should look!
