toy box

I bought this bench from Marcy from church about 3 months ago and I thought it would be perfect as a home for Tucker's toys. I thought it would be an easy paint job that would maybe take a week. Wrong. This was truly a labor of love and I am so glad it is finally done!


First I lightly sanded it and primed.

Even though I primed it I still need 3 coats of each color. And of course to add a little uniqueness I added some stripes on the spokes. This all took about a month to paint each coat, let dry, tape, paint, repeat...

Then, because I thought it needed more work, I painted some letters I found at Michael's.


I sealed the whole thing, let dry, added toys!


Finally done and it is already full of toys!
