Classic Dining Room Chairs


Before I begin to paint any piece of furniture, I sand it, re-glue, and prime.



I took a facebook poll and everyone voted for the grey/black stripe fabric.  I am very pleased with "the peoples choice"

                      



 

These classically styled chairs are painted with Benjamin Moore Aura Semi-Lustre.  The set consists of one armchair and five dining room chairs.

$300.00

Dining/Kitchen Chairs

I have almost completed these walnut chairs.  They are very, very solid; no wobblies here.  There are five basic chairs and an armchair.

Almost Done
 


       I just have to find the perfect upholstery fabric...Stripes? Geometric?
       It could be funky or traditional.

Refinished Chair-Great for the Summer

Shabby Chic Reed Chair
A great place to relax

 I just love this chair and hate to part with it.  But...I am reminded that I cannot keep every chair that I refinish.  Our house is getting a little bit crowded.  The basement is full and yard sale season is just beginning.  This chair was painted brown when I picked it up in a used furniture store.  I painted it blue with a white wash.  I was never happy with the finish, so I painted it a soft green and sanded it enough to allow a bit of the blue and brown to show through.   

I repaired a broken reed in the seat.  In time it will fade to match.
