It sure wasn't as easy as it sounded! But finally, I am done with the table and stools in the nook! I got started last Sunday on this project, and it took longer than expected. Didn't help that I was feeling a little under the weather this week, so I had to take some nights off of painting, but here it is!
Remember, here is what the table was like before (and here is the link to the first makeover I did on the table, removing the tabletop and adding the butcher block)...
Then, after spending a day sanding and a few nights painting, here is the after!
So nook went from this...
To this...
and finally to this...
Which looks much better with the other side of our kitchen...
I'm also thinking the antique ladder we found on our last junkin' adventure will stay in the nook as well. I think it is cute in the space and looks nice to our DYI antique chalkboard.
Well, now back to finishing up my chair cover project!
