So there is some big news in the Hart house! Oh and no we aren't pregnant!! We actually found a table that fits our entire family and MORE! I have been searching for a cheap table and chairs for forever that would accommodate all five of us and then some. Finally this week I was able to make that happen thanks to Craigslist. I love that little piece of heaven! I would have to say that half of the furniture in our house is from there.
SO back to my table! I love this thing! I found this table and bench last week for under $50 and I immediately called the lady and told her that I wanted it. The next day we went and picked it up! The only bad thing was - it didn't come with chairs. Not a problem! I searched for kitchen chairs the following day and found four chairs for under $40. So for everything, we spent less than $85!! Here is a picture of the kids enjoying the new table.
Here are the chairs I scored off of Craigslist. The second one from the left bit the dust once I examined each one. The wood was split in several areas. I am not sure why I didn't notice it when I picked them up, but oh well! It was still a good deal!
I used Krylon Dual spray paint for the chairs. I decided not to sand them down and I just sprayed right over the finish. My kids seem to ruin almost every kitchen table and chairs set, so I wasn't going to put too much time into these chairs. So I bought the dual paint with primer and it worked perfectly!
Here are the three finished chairs! I love love them!!!
So there they are! I love love love them! And it just so happens that the chair we had is red. Coincidence? I think not!
I kinda like the mix match feel! I am eventually gonna paint the table legs. I am not feeling the natural wood look. Not sure where I will go with those but I will keep y'all updated!!
