In order to stage the house we just renovated I needed a few things….like a dining room set. I had a vision.
I found the chairs @ Goodwill for $39.99 for all 4. Yippee!
This table was left behind months ago….and I claimed it immediately. Isn’t it gorgeous? It has a leaf too.
I decided they would go together nicely for the dining room @ the house. I painted the chairs….then recovered them with painters drop cloth. Sorry…super bad cell phone pic. The point is….I painted them and recovered the chairs @ my office…lol. Nothing like a little multi-tasking. =) Total spent. A few hours and about $52 bucks.
After: Staged in the house.
My hope this house will sell FAST. Then I can distress the chairs….stain the table and bring them home w/me! Last year I found our very overly large too big for our breakfast room table for $200. Its beautiful……but we were going to moving to a larger home then decided not to and well….it’s just too big. Although, I love the chairs….sigh.
old picture….not what our space looks like now…I was just playing that day. =)
This mirror now hangs in the breakfast room. I believe this other table will fit much nicer in here, don’t you? UGGGG….I’m getting the itch to paint this room again…..help!!!
Have a beautiful day~ J.

I love what you've done to the chairs. I've got to invest in drop cloth, I see so many uses for it. Like you darling I invested in 6 chairs for our dining room a while back, that room is never used now. Would love to sell the chairs and make it into a den instead, best layed plans of mice and men..

I've missed you too! It's been so busy lately around here but not nearly as busy as you with your renovations! I have a table by my front door that I want to paint and you know how I looooooooooooooooove to paint (can you just feel the sarcasm there?!). I'm going to Lowe's and hopefully finding out how all you ladies make things so beautiful with paint. When I paint furniture, even with good priming, it tends to chip and peel off so I usually just stain and polyurethane it. I think I'll try spray paint this time. Wish me luck!
You have been a very busy lady! The house is looking great.
