Naughty Chair

Months back - I think last November? - Ted made a time out chair for Gwenna. Meredith uses it now too, at 18 months. Back when she was a year there was very little hope that her stubby legs could get her in it or get her down - nor did she understand the concept of time out.

For the longest time, it looked like this:


Do you see it there in the background? I don't know that I ever took a picture of just the chair. It was made out of scraps and just as he went along. No plans really, just thrown together. But it works great and I wanted it to last longer and be more ... visually appealing. Not that pencil on bare wood doesn't have it own "appeal".

Ted and Gwenna painted it the colors of the girls' room. Then Gwenna and I went back and selected letters to mod podge on. I love the color combo.


If I was into vinyl, I'd have done that I imagine but I love how it looks, just the way it is. And luckily, it's back where it belongs and there's a bottom on it about a dozen times a day. We're in serious need of our naughty chair these days.
