Classic Black Antique China Cabinet

  Does anyone have china dishes anymore? Is it still a thing? Years ago, when I got married, it was all about picking your china pattern and creating a gift registry for the pieces you needed. My pattern was called Chelsea by Royal Doulton, and it was a soft muted floral.

Farmhouse White Dining Chairs

 

Light stained round backed chairs get a farmhouse update to pair with this farmhouse dining table.


These chairs were very popular in the 1990's. I know because we saved up to by a solid oak dining set that included them. These 4 were the perfect set to paint to go with the dining table I had in stock.

As per usual the first step is a deep cleaning.


With warm water, dish soap, scrub brushes and a spray cleaner all sides were given a good scrub.


All were rinsed well with hose and clean water then tipped to dry.


Now onto the paint process.


I was excited to try my new Wagner Sprayer and spray tent for this project.


The sprayer is the Flexio 5000. I used Valspar furniture paint from Lowe's Canada in the color du jour in the iSpray front end nozzle.


Here are my first spray attempts on video.


But I ended up with an orange peel surface and that was not my goal. Wagner has a fabulous support phone line that gave me all the tips I needed going forward. Why did I not call them first?


For furniture, use the detail finish front end sprayer. Oh And sand the chairs to smooth the surface ;(
This is the step that would have been so good to miss but like the support fellow said "turn up the music and just get it done ;)"


Two more coats were sprayed on using the detail finish sprayer.


And the chairs are complete. Perfect compliment to the dining table don't you think?
