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.

Spray Paint a Horse


I <3 horses and when I saw this adorable horse statue at a local thrift sale I snatched him up.


 I was not a fan of his coloring but I knew I could make him any color I wanted. I chose Krylon spray paint in sea glass.




I was working on other painted frames and there seemed to be a color theme ;)


Here it is after multiple coats and to add the definition back I rubbed on Fusion Mineral Paint ageing and copper waxes
