Charming Twins
These country chic farm chairs were my inaugural project here at the stone house--and what a perfect way to bring on the upcycling to Hazelnut's new home! Here they are before:
Lovely old farmhouse pieces! We gave the wobbly one a little structural repair and went straight on into sanding and hiding the old, scuffed, mismatched wood with a lovely shade of black.
Then some moderate distressing along the wear lines gave that well-used, well-loved look!
The wood showed through beautifully in a couple different shades of honey and red.
Here they are, about to be on their way to their gorgeous red and black kitchen home! Thanks to Dee for a very fun inaugural project=) And thanks for stopping by!

Lovely! I especially like the distressed portions of the chair backs. You did a great job!
