Vintage Rocker Redo with Shabby Seat
Replacement.

| AFTER |
| When I purchased this great vintage rocker I swear there were no holes or torn areas, SO now I had a bigger project. The caning had to be cut away from the seat. I sanded the chair , Painted white, heavily distressing, by wiping off paint before drying and some sanding too! Now, what was I going to put on for a SEAT? In looking in the garage there was a large sheet of lumber with the black manufactured or lumber printing? I though it was rustic and perfect, so I made a pattern, cut out a piece, stained the seat with a tinted green stain, of course smoothing the edges and applying poly. Wood glued under top edges of seat and screwed on from underneath where there were holes from the caning. No screw heads showing, loved that!  |
| BEFORE I must admit that there is a little creaking sound as you rock due to the wood seat, but I love the sound! Perfect for the porch! |
