This spooky bench was a prairie dove original.
A friend of mine was downsizing and was getting rid of this:
I had to pull over!!
The bench had a wood finish and was missing a dowel.
I shoved her in my van on my way to school.
I actually had to remove the bench when picking up the kids, and then put it back in.
Now that's dedication.
One coat of Ace primer, two coats of leftover Dutch Boy gloss black and some light distressing leave this bench ready to party!
(She is styled outside, but will be used indoors).
Betty, I know you saw the bench photos! If you want her back, you're more than welcome!
I will be linkingup this week at:

Your new bench looks beautiful!! What a find and great work in getting it in shape!
Thanks for your idea. Actually, I do have my paintings in a local restaurant and recently changed up some of the pieces. I've tried other cafe's before, but this is the first time that I found a place where it actually sells!
I'll try other places, too, now that you suggested it.
Have a great weekend.
