Chair Repairs
Rocking Chair
It was a good week for foraging in the consignment shop…

Albert Nadeau
…we found another rocking chair made by our favourite fine furniture-maker!

Split Spindle
It was a good price, which was lowered further when I pointed out the split spindle.

Wood Glue
We took it home and fixed the spindle with the application of a speck of wood glue…

Clamp
…and a clamp…

Wait
…and a 24 hour wait.

I have chair envy! LOL!!! Excellent find.
We were very excited to find this beautiful rocking chair- they were made by hand thousands of miles away, we are amazed to have found it here!
We just found a little rocking chair new in it’s package. It has a detached arm we need to fix. You have inspired me to open the package and fix it.
Oh how delightful, we are glad to have inspired your chair repair!
Congrats on finding such a beautiful piece of furniture.
Thanks!!
Another beautiful rocking chair. They really look tired of waiting….
It is beautiful, isn’t it! The girls will have to be patient…they don’t want to have a Goldilocks in baby bear’s chair experience!
wow!! What a find. The girls waiting made me laugh. Such patience will be rewarded I am sure.
We were thrilled to find it in the shop, even with a cracked spindle! The girls have been patient all day, and will be allowed to sit on the mended rocking chair when they get up in the morning!
