Project Elizabeth {Glider}

After Brian and I went to the Childbirth class, Brian felt that we needed to get a glider or rocking chair got me.  We decided to check out a thrift store on our way home, and found a glider in good condition for cheap.  The cushions were disgusting and thrown out before going inside, and I wanted it white.

When Brian's parents came into town for a visit, we put them to work.  Mike had a lot of great ideas, and helped Brian expand his tool bag {much to Brian's joy}.  Francine also had some good ideas about how to make the cushions for the glider.

Brian and Mike sanding the glider.
 
 Brian did a great job painting it all white for me.
  
Brian and I worked together to make a pattern for the cushions, and then make it.  I love the bright color, and how nicely it fits into the nursery.
  
 I also love snuggling and rocking my little Elizabeth in it now!
  
 Elizabeth enjoys it too!
