The ugliest table and chairs made pretty....

The other day I found a listing on craigslist for the ugliest table and chairs from the 60's or 70's. I felt so bad for the pieces that I wanted to give them a new life.....
I used a very shabby pale blue/gray color then distressed everything. The seats were in dire need of new fabric. I used scrap pieces from a drop cloth to accomplish this. Although I knew the transformation would be huge, it exceeded even my own expectations.....

  7. I like your sensitivity to ugly furniture. If furniture were living they would be very grateful for the face lifts they get from you.
