Trash Chair

old chair, paint

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/trash-chair • Posted by Sincia S.

This is a project I did a few years ago. I found an old broken (it was in 3 pieces with loose everything) chair in the trash that I really liked and took it home. I put it back together with some glue and a nail gun. Once it was put back together I sanded it a bit but not too much, I wanted to keep some of the course bark like texture it had from being out in the rain. Then I spray painted the chair with this velvety spray to which I added the sort of shapes to hopefully add to the bark like effect(with a twist). I'm fascinated with nature and trees especially, it's where I get most of my inspiration for my art projects. The end result is the pic of the chair with a frame on it.
