Child's Rocker Finished~Diamonds In The Rough

Remember I'm doing what I call my Diamonds In The Rough! features? It's where I show you my weekly buys from garage sales, tag sales, thrift stores, etc. Then I promise to show you what I make with them or what I use them for. Well, I finished the child's rocker. But before I reveal it, I will give you a hint of what I did with it. Does this look familiar to anyone?

Okay, now the before...But first, a story. A friend called me and said come and get a child's rocker that her hubby was throwing away. She had gotten it in the trash pile after an auction intending to fix it up. Well, she never did and her hubby got tired of it being in his garage. So I drove over and retrieved it, to save it from her hubby's wrath. Thanks John and Janet!

And I purchased this feedsack...

And this is what I did with both of them...

 My thought process was, 1) Feed sacks are a popular look now. 2) Feed sacks are usually very durable and soft. and 3) Why not! What do you think? You want to buy it :)
