We bought this table for the chairs, which we used on another project. The table sat in my shed for almost a year until we moved to Texas and it was decided that we had a need for a "formal" dining space. We have the room, the table is the ideal size and it was a great project to get the creative juices flowing again. It is in the style of Duncan Phyfe and the chairs, who knows. But in the end, it shows you don't have to buy a "set" from a store. We can acquire pieces, at much different times and marry them together. Patience and persistence were the key to this dining set coming to be.
I tried a new paint on the chairs. The Annie Sloan Paris Gray made the trip here from FL, but I had no white for the chairs. I tried Maison Blanche. It is also a chalk paint, and while it applies a little differently, it has a very similar look in the end. I really love how this came together. I look forward to trying the many finishes that Maison Blanche has in their line! I need to get Ladawn to try it too!
