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.

Jumbo Wooden Pepper Grinder in Malachite Green


This is a change up for this solid wood pepper grinder from wood to wonderful!


This 14" H pepper mill was scrubbed inside and out and let dry completely.


It was painted 2 coats of Jolie Paint in the gorgeous teal green malachite. See more projects done in this fabulous color HERE.


No distressing for this bad boy, just a nice crisp paint job.


To add some character to the grinder a P was stenciled on using Jolie Paint's classic navy.


But being on a rounded surface the stencil was not as crisp as I wanted so I hand painted over with a small artist brush.


Much better!

 

When the paint was dry the entire pepper mill was sealed with Jolie's clear wax using their fabulous wax brush.


Further dimension was added with Jolie's brown wax brushed in the nooks and crannies.




Take a video tour of this fella.




The customer who bought this grinder ordered a bold red salt shaker to be its partner. How FUN!
