Table and Chairs

I worked on two projects this week.  I had an old oak sofa table that my in laws weren't using anymore and 2 oak chairs that My Grandpa Pyrah had brought from Montana to refinish and never got around to before he passed away.  My Grandma passed away early on in the week and I needed some serious distraction.  If I slowed down at all I would get really sad so it was easier to work on these projects that I have been putting off for awhile.

Here are the before photos

 The picture above is the only one that I have.  

I need to be better about taking a before picture.

I have two of these chairs, I am only going to show you the first one I got finished and when I finish my front room changes I will show it to you all put together.  

Here are the afters!!!

 The table is too small for my large wall so it is going to have to find another spot, and I will need to find something else for that spot. It turned out really great looking though.


The chairs are so cute, the first picture makes it look more cherry red
than it really is.  The second one gives you a better idea of what it really looks like.  My plan is some Chevron pillows to go in my red chairs.  We will see how my vision comes out.

These two projects were my favorite ever that I have done.  I think it was because of the circumstances of the week, I put a lot of heart and soul into them.  I know those chairs will be cherished in my home for years to come.  I really enjoy thinking that I was able to do something with them where Grandpa couldn't.  

Thanks for reading!
