Red Jenny Lind High Chair

This is actually NOT a projector project (though I do have one more in the works to show you.)   :)  If you are one of the few people out there who have yet to enter the giveaway, there’s still time before the Artograph Projector becomes someone else’s this Friday!

I picked up this adorable Jenny Lind Spindle High Chair at a yard sale the last weekend for $7.

After going round and round about how to finish it, I decided on a deep, Pottery Barn style red with a black glaze.  I love how it turned out!

This and all the rest of my current inventory (along with the stuff I’m going to try and get done in the next few weeks) are going to be available for sale at the Junkrestore Vintage Market in Camp Verde, AZ, put on by Tara of Junkrestore, November 19th and 20th (the weekend before Thanksgiving.)  Camp Verde is a great, central Arizona location!  Those of you in Phoenix, it’s a quick jaunt north.  From the Prescott area, it’s just a skip to the east.  From Flagstaff, head a smidge south and you’re there.  From Payson, just a mosey to the northwest.  This is going to be a great sale with lots of fantastic vendors.  I’ll share more information as we get closer to the date.

  3. Oh that is so pretty. That would look so much nicer in the corner of my dining room than the plastic graco one I have. Nice job!

  6. I love that old style of highchair, I wish I had something like that when my kids were little instead of the big ugly plastic thing.
    I just painted a Jenny lind style bed for my daughters room this weekend.

  14. Yay, I'm your 900th follower. I love your blog, thanks to Shelley F (the most amazing woman whom I adore) for posting about it on facebook today.

    I love fun projects like this and have plenty of painted furniture, even orange boxes painted with chalk paint for my office when I ran out of money. They make great "drawers".
