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.

Fusion Tones for Tots ~ Little Stork



Fusion mineral paints has a great new line called Tones for Tots, a super sweet line of fabulous colors. You can see the making of a gorgeous dresser in Little Teapot here.





Little Piggy was used on a chair that is nearly 140 years old but here is my first use of Little Stork; a soft purple


 gather supplies including one of Fusion's new stencils


 I painted the heavy bristle board with Fusion paint in casement for a crisp background


 and used a deep purple to paint in the stencil


 the framed art is ready


 the close-up shows the outline with silver marker which highlights the lovely saying
