A Thanksgiving Table

I promised my son, Zach, we would get to park in the garage this winter so we won't freeze on the way to school again this year, so this table set that's been hogging up the garage had to be dealt with! :)

Everything got a coat of Paris Gray Chalk Paint.

The chairs and table base only needed one coat, but I gave the table top several coats. 

To distress, I mostly used a sandpaper grit of 400, along with 220.  It just doesn't take much effort with the CP!

There were so many carved details on this table set, I knew glaze would add the perfect touch.   It was pretty dang brutal glazing the six chairs, with all the legs, spindles and details!

As I wiped off the glaze, more of the paint came off.  I loved it, though, because it gave the set an extra chippy look!

I used Wipe-On Poly for the finish.  Everything got at least 2 coats.  The seats and backs of the chairs got 3 coats, and the table top got four coats for extra super duper durability.

Here is the table and two of the chairs before~

All ready for Thanksgiving dinner!

Add a leaf, and there's room for more!!!

Here's some shots of the chairs...did I mention there were 6 of these to do???   :)

HAPPY {early} THANKSGIVING!!!
