A Completed Project!

Here's the rundown of my chairs and table...
When we first got them, they were not a match
Table - Dark and old wood
Chairs - Light wood with high gloss lacquer
I wish I would have taken a picture of them long ago before starting this process, but they were both not attractive and especially as a set!  
My mother-in-law and I got to work sanding and painting them and this was the end result.  Loved the black and the fact that the table and chairs finally matched but the seat cushions were still pretty ug!
 After years of looking for fabric for my chairs, I FINALLY finished the project and recovered my seat cushions with the help of my sister!
 
Ta Duh!
 So, this might have been one of the easiest things I have ever done.  Why did I live with those UGLY seat coverings for so long...? Anyway, I know it is nothing fabulous, but I think it turned out pretty good for a pieced together job!
The End :)
