Solid Wood Spice Rack is spiced up

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.

Solid wood kitchen spice racks have been trending for sometime with alternative uses. They are super handy to store essential oils, nail polish, perfumes and other beauty products in the bathroom.

A small collectible shelf is also another use.

Repainted a fun color also adds a punch to a kitchen as a traditional spice rack.

For this one I chose Krylon spray paint in chalky finish color waterfall.

Spray multiple thin coats on all sides in a well ventilated area and allow to dry.

I lightly sanded the edges with a sanding sponge for a more vintage feel then sealed all sides with the Krylon spray paint clear chalky finish spray sealer.

To further age and add dimension, I hand waxed the entire piece in Daddy Vans black wax.

This deepened the color as well for a gorgeous teal shade.
