Dining chairs

I've been working on updating our dining chairs for the past couple of weeks. We had four original chairs and have always used mismatched chairs for the final two. I painted the original four grey.

I really like how they turned out. I kind of don't want the kids to sit on them--hello! Not the point!

Then I found three of these chairs on craigslist; they are wood with caning and upholstered seats, and they needed some love. (And actually, one needed so much love I ended up not using it--but I needed only two anyway.)

I sanded, painted, sealed, and reupholstered them.

The upholstery isn't perfect--this was my first time doing something like this--but I really love how these turned out. The fabric is going to go very well with the curtains Mama made (they arrived yesterday! Thank you, Mama!).

Next up is painting the dining table. :)
