Mens Valet in Grey

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.

What better way to get Dad organized for Father's Day then getting him a custom painted mens valet?

This handsome wood valet was custom called in classic grey for Father's Day!

It was all cleaned up well with a good vacuum and scrub.

Then painted 2 coats of little lamb from Fusion Mineral Paint

Then distressed to reveal that stained wood underneath.

Fusion has a built in top coat so does NOT require any further steps but to add some further age and dimension, Daddy Vans black wax was hand rubbed all over and wiped back.
