Kyle's projects

The past couple months Kyle has been working on my Grandma Bleazard's kitchen table. I've always wanted a wooden table and we finally got it. Also there was a rocking chair at my grandma's house that was sitting under the carport so I took it. =) The table had so many coats of paint. The first was pink since my Grandma likes pink but there was also 70's green, white, and some light blue. He worked so hard to peel all the paint off and sand the pieces down to make them look good. Once Kyle got all the paint off there was a burn mark on the table. It is the shape of the bottom of a coffee cup. Hmm I wonder if Grandpa Bleazard had anything to do with it =) We were going to paint it black and then sand the edges but the wood was in such great condition we decided to just stain it. I wish Grandma Bleazard could see it!!

I really wish we had gotten a picture of the rocking chair before Kyle took it apart and sanded it down. The rockers were so wore out that he had to make brand new ones. The seat was made out of some kind of mesh and he cut boards to make the seat. Then he painted the chair black. It looks great. Nice job Kyle and Thank you so much for all the time you put into this!!!! Love ya!!
