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.

Metal Flower Garden Stake in Aubergine


Did you see my post on spray painting a metal garden stake a fun turquoise? Here is round #2


I purchased another flower shape for my garden


Seeing I had this gorgeous aubergine color  chalked paint from Rustoleum  that I was using on this Mid Century Styled Nightstand, I decided to try it on the metal flower.


Using their round brush it went on very easily and adhered well to the metal


I left it to dry in the shade


To add some fun, I painted the center using Country Chic paint in creme brule with a brush as well


                   To seal the paint I chose Rustoleum ultra cover matte spray clear coat


                                           It deepened the gorgeous purple color perfectly
