The other day, I found this cute little kitchen table and chairs at Faith Farm. It was a little tired and a little dated, but in great condition. Even the caning on the chairs was perfect.
The Before shot
Over this last week, I’ve finally gotten around to updating them. You know the drill… clean them, sand them a little, use primer, then paint. I used an oil based paint (from Sherwin Williams – love their paints!!) because I know it holds up better to chips and scratches – and with four dogs and two cats, that’s important enough to use a stinky oil paint.
I also reupholstered the seats. I used a furry zebra print – and I LOVE it! My husband is questioning the use of an animal print, but since I’m going to sell the set, I figured I’d go big and bold!
Zebra Chair
I painted some of the details on the chairs black, because without it, it looked a little naked to me. I also painted the ribbon on the bottom of the table top black too. I think it adds just a little bit of “something” to it.
All set for breakfast!
Those roses are from my daughter for Mother’s day – I love when I get to use my “special” vases!
Love the zebra! Glad I have enough left over to make a pillow!
So, what do you think??
Thanks for stopping by!

I really love the way this came out! Good call on adding the additional black “stripes” on the table/chairs, it really brings it all together. Great job!!!
Thanks
Great Job!
Thank you
What do I think? Fabulous!! Fantastic job and completely agree about the added black- makes the whole thing!
Thanks!
That dining set is so adorable! If I had a bigger kitchen in my house, it would be the perfect addition to it!
Thank you! I wish is was a little bigger for the space, because I really like how it turned out.
Love it!!!
Gorgeous!! and I must say Im jealous.. My too tiny apartment means I can’t have a nice kitchen table (it’s been the coffee table since we moved in..) but its either have a table in the living room or have a crafting/sewing desk.. Guess which I chose!
My daughter was given almost the exact same dining table & chairs for her 1st apartment. The color is UGLY, light olive green. It is in perfect condition & now you’ve inspired me to give it a new look. Thanks!!!
Wow! That looks fantastic! I have a kitchen table that I so need to redo!
I love zebra print! You did a great job!
Thank you!
Hi, I love the bold zebra seats. So many don’t have the nerve to do bold animal prints. I love it! I have a touch of animal print in every room of the house. And I love Faith Farms!!!!! Just bought a back seat and back french slipper chair that needs painting and new cushion. thanks for the inspiration.
Selling it huh?!? How much? LOL
The set sold a while ago
