FINISHED!!!

  I finally finished up a few projects in the garage today.

       I am listing them on Craig's List because my garage is getting full :) 

                       Here are 4 solid wood chairs I bought at an auction.  They were a mess and very dirty.

      I sanded, primed, painted and put new fabric on the chair seats.

 

Here is a fantastic solid maple table I also bought at the auction.

I stripped and stained the top and painted the base.

The top was a mess but it cleaned up very well!

I love how it came out - it's SOLD too!!!

Here is a vintage maple side table - also purchased at an auction.

The table was in great condition and very solid but there were a few marks on top.

I stripped and stained the top and painted and distressed the bottom!!

This table is FOR SALE  - $75

That's all for now!

Making Progress

I have been spending lots of time in the garage these last few days.  We are experiencing absolutely beautiful weather - perfect for stripping, sanding, staining and painting!  Nothing is finished but here are a few photos.

                                             Painted and Stained ready for Finish

This table was a mess but I am very excited about the progress I am making.  I took the table apart and then stripped, sanded and stained the top.  I used a mixture of special walnut and gray stain trying for a weathered look - what do you think!  So far I have only primed the bottom but I can picture it with a crisp white bottom and the weather gray, brown top :)

Just to refresh your memory here is the BEFORE - the table was a mess!

Top stained and ready for finish!
