No Strip or Sand Stained Dining Chairs

I wanted new dining chairs for my own home to go with our antique Duncan Phyfe style dining table  I restored. Previously we had leather parson's chairs but I have always loved the look of wooden pressback chairs so this is what I chose to replace them with. And I am going to stain them WITHOUT stripping and sanding! I had 2 sets of press back chairs in my stock to paint, now to decide which set. My husband and I did a comfort sitting test and of course visual and went with the slightly larger ones on the left. This set also has 2 captains chairs as a bonus.

Country Chic Bliss


Those of you who know me or follow me, know I love shades of turquoise. When I saw the Country Chic paint color pallet "bliss", it called my name. I held out for quite awhile but finally had to try it.
enter this solid maple dresser and a match was made

step one make all repairs, lightly sand the top and scrub well, these steps are crucial to good adhesion and final look of your project

 I like to use a good quality synthetic brush when applying the paint for an even application



the last of the orange stained maple to be covered in this pretty sea green, I applied 3 coats of Country Chic tough coat over the paint for easy wipe and durability of this piece


 the original hardware worked perfect with this color so after a good scrub and dry it was put back on

 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this color
