Finally, after many weeks of measuring, cutting, sanding, nailing, cursing, disassembling, & reassembling, the chairs are complete! My long suffering husband had to revamp the whole plan to make the chairs work. (How can a woodworking book be published with typos and entire missing steps, I wonder?) We have each claimed a favorite and chosen the colors we'd like ours to be painted: yellow for Bella, blue for Ben, orange for Andy, and for me - whatever looks good with yellow, blue, and orange I guess! Now it's off to the "Daddy Store" to pick out the colors and get them painted! If only it wasn't raining for the next two days.
