My pretty pretty table. Needless to say, I am quite proud of myself.

A Pinterest-Worthy Project
Last week I took on a daunting project. I bought an ugly dining room table and chairs and dared to refinish them! I have a friend who is a DIY queen and she guided me through the stripping of the stain, the sanding, the painting, the staining and the applying of polyurethane. It was no easy task but I managed to do almost all of it all by myself in about 10 days!
The "Before." As you can see, the green fabric and the blonde stain is quite icky. But I loved the design on the chairs and they are solid wood, very sturdy.
The staining of the table and priming of the chairs.
The painting, antiquing and final coat of polyurethane.
The finished product! I even reupholstered the cushions myself!
