I have been working on this piece of artsy furniture to display my jewelry on.......I hate to put away my necklaces in a jewelry box....i enjoy seeing them every day.I started this a good month ago and then put away after the base coat. It was a repurposed object project . The horse was a discarded xmas display a neighbor gave me.. the short round table was also given to me last year ..........the thin wood strips were a from window treatment box a friend gave me and the main beam a piece of scrap wood a neighbor was cleaning out
I had time this week to play with it a bit.........still need to put a 4th coat of paint . I normally like the Plaid brand paint but i must have gotten a bad bottle ...two coats should have covered it completely . I will have to buy another bottle to finish but it will wait till after xmas. NOT about to head to a store this last week of xmas :)
I decided on the yarn for the hair  and going to use an Italian tie for a blanket ...i have them laying on the horse for now .
I will add brass tacks to the rocker areas to hang necklaces on and then the narrow wood pieces will hold bracelets and whatever else .
It is     chest high when sitting on the floor . I will put on a low card table and will be perfect :) 
After next week hopefully I will get him finished ...... 
I will be saving scrap wood of all kinds for a next project and hopefully to build a chicken tractor to house couple of chickens come spring
