Last week we took on the project of revamping our kitchen table and chairs. We sanded down all of the surfaces and then stained the wood finish a dark brown.
For our Saturday project, that is how far we got. We found our table and chairs (bought from the one and only KSL classifieds) started out green and then were painted white, then black, and then another color of black. So lots of sanding.
I can’t wait to show you the final product when they are done. Hopefully this next week. We still have to paint them and then seal them up with some strong lacquer.
This is after we stained the seats of the chairs.
This baby is another hand-me-down and future project of mine. I haven’t quite had some inspiration for it. I will have to hop on over to pinterest to find some.

Wow, that is quite a project. I tried to help Josh build a chicken coop today. It didn't go well. He did not appreciate me measuring anything. Now, he can just go bungle it together himself.
That hutch is beautiful! I can see it filled up with shelves and crafty things in your craft room. But you might make it too pretty to hide it down there.
I love doing home projects like that! It's nice to see some payoff for your efforts...and thank goodness for belt sanders! That table looks so familiar to the one we re-did last year, and now it's in storage :(
Excited to see the table, but please don't paint over that beautiful wood of that bookcase! I would kill to find something like that. Right now I have boxes and boxes of books in our front room with no bookshelf to put them on.
I can't wait to see the finished project! How exciting to have a new table.
