I finally have a matching set of dining room chairs! My grandma had a set of four chairs in her garage that were about to go to the burn pile unless someone claimed them. So I thought I might be able to do something with them. After a couple hours of sanding down the old finish (with the help of my amazingly sweet and willing boyfriend) they were ready for paint. I spent a long time thinking about different fun colors for these chairs. They could be anything- my house is an eclectic mix of things and colors I love. I finally settled on red. Arriving at the store and facing hundreds of cans of spray paint, I found the one: Chinese Red Lacquer. I'm loving how they turned out. Below is a shot of a sanded chair and the new happy red.
