    Cool Finally finished!

    I am finally finished with my kitchen table and chairs. (discussed [ame="http://www.frugalvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=101023"]here[/ame])

    I'm really happy with the way it turned out. It was A LOT of work, so I hope that I'm happy with it for a good, long time. Inspiration, before, and after pictures are on my blog www.songbirdtiff.com. Let me know what you think!

    Wow...It turned out awesome! Can't believe you did that for under $20.00.....very, very impressive.

    Thanks!

    cokencaptgirl, I honestly don't know what brand of stain I used. It was old and left over from a long time ago. I think the color was something like maple. The stained color was just a tiny bit darker than the raw wood. The chairs and the bottom of the table are black. I used a semi gloss.

    Miranda, I'm sorry you can't get it to load. There are a lot of pictures so all I can thinks is if you are on a dial up connection it may too large to load. Otherwise, maybe try again another time?
