Distressed Dining Chairs - Set of 4 - March 29, 2012

I've been slack on the blog posts lately!  April and May seriously whizzed by in a blur, can't believe it's almost June!

I completed these chairs for a friend back in March.  They're the sweetest little family.  During this project, they added a new little member to their family...sweet baby Leo!  I hope he and his big sister enjoy these dining chairs as they grow up :o)

Elizabeth informed me that these chairs once belonged to her husband's grandfather.  You know me, I love a good background story!  I love that they've kept these chairs in the family...and wanted to spruce them up a little for the next generation.  The chairs already had so much character, all it took was a fresh new color to make them look brand new!

The color chosen was "Spa" by Sherwin Williams.  I love this color, so bright and cheery!

How the chairs looked before...

Love the details.


Chairs after a coat of primer.

Primer makes all the difference!

And voila!  Four brand new chairs!

Great idea to paint these chairs Elizabeth!  And thanks so much for allowing me the chance to do this project for you!
