It’s not my fault it has taken so long don’t blame me but you can blame my toe I had operated on, and the doctor who said stay off of it, and the other projects I decided to do in between working on it, and... geez…here’s the before and after. Hope you like it.
One of the chairs before.
Sorry I had already started sanding the top and boy was it stubborn. My husband was a sweetie and helped me by sanding about half the top. As you can see it was your basic used dining set with that thick poly on top that always scratches first thing. I just hate that don’t you? Now here is my version.
I just love my chair shrugs don’t you? They are tea dyed scrim fabric. I stripped the top stained it with a dark walnut stain and applied three coats of wax to protect it.
I love to expose a beautiful inlay and accent it.
By the way this inlay is done in such away that as you walk around the table the look of the inlay changes in each section its hard to describe you would need to see it yourself. You can sort of tell in the first two pictures. Its just beautiful.
The base and legs as well as the chairs are painted in “Old White” ASCP, waxed with clear wax, distressed and a then a final coat of clear wax applied.
The chairs are my favorite part. I won’t go in detail as I’m sure you have already read the tutorial on how I refinished them. If you have not seen the tutorial yet and would like to go here.
Thanks for stopping by ya’ll and keeping checking in as I'll have something new to show you real soon.
Happy painting
I'm sharing with the following parties.
