Finally i have finished this rocking chair and I'm very happy with it.
I purchased this in Morayfield last year and it was very worn and scratched but that was ok as i wanted to paint one up myself anyway.
I spent such a long time sanding every part then prepping and doing undercoat then finally 2x top coats and TAA DAAA all finished ready to be enjoyed for many years to come.
what a great sense of achievement in the finished product :)

G'DAY Happy Australia Day 2017 Having two Aussie Kids born & breed in Australia i feel so much Gratitude for this County and what it Represents for our Family. Moving across from New Zealand for a two year OE in 2007  it became quickly apparent the Aussie laid back lifestyle suited perfectly our wants & needs for the future also the endless opportunities this Country offered us that our Homeland couldn't. I think people think its the Money that lures us Kiwis across but its much more than that let me enlighten you : The warmth !

School became closer to starting back for 2017 & starting all together for my Youngest new little Preppy ! But its more than it just being the First Day Of School ! Its the next stage in her Life "Our Life" ! Its a big thing right ! ! She's now expected to be more mature.  Not be picked up & cuddled & soothed as much. She is a big School Girl that should no better when acting out & a pile of other expectations that get put onto the Shoulders of children when they move up into the next stage of Life! A huge part of me wants to run away to a Beach & raise my Children Home schooled without the stresses & dealings of everyday School life! I still remember my early School years (well all of them & its bloody hard work) !  Dealing with so many emotions and situations at such a young age!  When life should be carefree & all about who is "it" whilst playing Tiggy & getting Bindys stuck in your ...

Being inside was awful its so hard to not go out and enjoy the fresh air and do things, I also love the sun so having to avoid that is awful. Its funny to think that from now on i will have to wear a hat and cover up. Today for the first time i went to Story time at the library with Aaliyah and didn't wear a scratch of make up no moisturizer nothing (not that i had a choice in the matter) And it honestly didn't actually bother me at all. I even forgot that i wasn't wearing make up. Now coming from me who never leaves the house with out a full face of make up on , that is quite big. I actually feel really good about it and believe that this is my reason for this to happen to me, to help me grow as a person and feel more confident bearing all for the world to see. People that are naturally beautiful and used to not wearing m...
