Farmhouse Inspired-Table & Chairs Re-do

How lucky am I?
My neighbors were going to donate their
dining room table and chair set. BUT, when
they saw a Facebook post of mine...they
donated it to me!
Oh thank you! Thank you!
Thank you, good neighbors!

I absolutely love how the table turned out. I originally wanted to stain just the top.
I am SOOOO glad I went ahead and stained it all!

First, I sanded the table. Once sanded, I cleaned it and added three coats of stain.
I sanded all the chairs as well. I had to do a little fixing up but not much at all. ;)
I used Heirloom White spray paint on the chairs.
I added three coats of polycrylic to the table top.
*I hand sanded with medium grit sandpaper*

Whattya think??

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a great day!

    Thank you! I'll be putting this in my space at Marketplace 3301 here in town. If it doesn't sell...I may be putting it in MY dining room space. LOL. Thanks for stopping by!

  9. This is beautiful! I have a very similar style child's table and chair set that I wanted to re-hab for for my son's new room and I was thinking paint, but you've inspired me to try this. What tint/color stain did you use? I'm a newbie to blogging so I'll be following for sure!
