Here is it when I had just started the removal of fabric, see the awful ugly orange and its pretty dinged up as well.
and here it is once I have sanded down all wood that will not be covered by fabric.
I plan on staining it a warm grey and have gotten the first coat of grey stain on but it was a very cool grey and had too much of a purple look for my taste so I have to go and get a light brown stain to alternate coats with. But I decided if the stain doesnt come out a color I will like I will just sand and start again. I will not get discouraged ^_^ More to post soon.
On a separate note I am expecting my period any day now. Woot!
That chair DOES look just like ours! I am impressed you are taking on the restoration yourself. I'm sure it will look amazing once it's all done. It's the most comfortable chair to nurse in!
