REFINISHING PROJECT PART 2 seats saga

The first step was easy all I had to do was take three screws out of each chair and the seat came off.

Next came the eager and lovely wife to prepare with the dark walnut stain.

AAAAHHHHH..... the first stroke...

Once the seats were all said and done they looked like this............

Well 3/4 the way done

Here are two completely stained and yes if you did notice those are old metal milk crakes holding the seats up

REFINISHING PROJECT

I have to play catch up with this project. So my wife and I decided it was time for a new kitchen table. Along with this table comes new chairs. So to begin with the journey of getting these itmes comes the search of Craigslist. My wife went looking for chairs that were somewhat French Country looking. After a little bit of searching she found these chairs:


After getting these kind of chairs it was time to get a table. Eventually she found a claw foot table tha she liked and we drove like 3 1/2 hrs to get it and then another 3 1/2 hrs back. Unfortunately I didn't take a before picture. This is what it looked like after I sanded it.






Next up comes staining the seats.
