With not being able to do anything in the kitchen or dining room for this week, I was definitely feeling the pressure to do SOMETHING productive to prepare for hosting Thanksgiving.
I decided on recovering the dining room chairs, since they were looking really beat (and super dusty from all the construction)
Some of the chairs are lined up in the hallway, to prevent the dog from busting through the plastic and ruining the floor staining! (He busted through during the sanding, which didn't do any harm... but alerted us that we need to set up a better barrier for the staining/poly stage!)
The material on them was picked out for the old house dining room.
Definitely time for a refresh!
I went shopping for the new material keeping in mind my china pattern...
..and knowing that we are painting the walls a chocolate brown (above the board & batten).
Here's what I picked!
And one of the finished chairs...
I can't wait to get everything in there and see how it all pulls together! It's definitely harder doing this without the room finished so that we can try things out and see how it looks. It's a lot of guessing, and hoping everything will look good together!
