The Man Chair

The Man Chair - A Work In Progress

Sawmill fall off wood(bottom right insert) +plus+ well worn living room furniture =equals= New Man Chair!

And I do expect that there is a matching Love Seat next in line!

Kevin does upholstery work, hence the source for coils where the matching black seat cushion will rest. The black canvas came from a boat seat refinish project of summers past.

The stain wash is a secret mix of colors only of Kevin knows. The tones are layered then wiped clean to achieve this look.

At first sight I fell I love with the chair. The wood and black is extremely striking. Sleek, and I would have to say elegant.

We usually go for a more rustic look, but Kevin calls this the cowboy appeal. After a hard day riding the range, you want something to lean into and let go.

Growing up in the Mountains of Colorado on a ranch, he’s had many a day of tired muscles. Come to think of it, even though we have no animals, Kevin always puts in a full day. Dawn to Dusk. Some would say, myself at times, that he is a workaholic, but the way I see it, and I can relate to this as well, creativity must be expressed ~ continuously.

So here’s to creativity in motion on a daily basis!

Have a great Labor Day weekend! And you can bet where I’ll find Kevin: ~ AT THE SHOP!
