I finished my first upholstery project, and I must say, I love it!!
The table and chairs were given to us when we moved into our house by my in-laws. We've had it for 15 years. That should help explain the stains.
After we (Nonny, helped me take them apart and take off the fabric), tore them apart then I took a little black paint and just wiped it on to make the finish a little darker.
This is a side by side, it's not a huge difference, but still darker than it was.
And here it is finished.
I still can't get over how good they look. I don't think it looks too bad for my first time.
I had 6 of them to do, and I had to re-do one of them, but I think it was well worth it.
