Makeover of a Kitchen Table and Chairs

Two tone dining table and chairs - a makeover

I painted this kitchen table and matching chairs about five years ago and still love them just as much as I did then.

Hand Painted Roller Blinds – Take One (And how to get clean crisp lines with masking tape without getting the paint bleed under the edges)

Hand Painted Roller Blinds
