Red Bench

SOLD

!!!!!!!This bench now has a new home in Kaysville, Utah!!!!!

We went to our fav store and purchased this beauty.  I knew immediately that this would be my RED bench.  I had a vision and knew exactly what it was going to end up looking like.  Dick built the bench and then painted it Awning Red with his new paint gun that he got for his birthday.  He sure has learned how to make his painting perfect with it.

We got to this point and began to do the black glazing and lo and behold the bench was almost ruined.  We switched glazing compounds to a Home Depot brand, Behr, which was the biggest error of all.  The dry time is to short and would dry before getting it rubbed off. Dick had to repaint the bench in the area that had been glazed and then another trip to Ogden to Lowe’s to get the right product, Valspar.

We lightly distressed this bench instead of the heavy distressing that was done on the previous benches.  With an new batch of black glazing mixed up, we started the process of glazing our beautiful red bench.  The colors just change once the glazing process is started.

This bench is waiting for a new home.  While it waits, I get to enjoy it in my home.
