DIY
If you have been to my house lately you've might have notice that my kitchen chairs are dieing off one by one. They were nothing fancy just an Ikea set that I got 3 years ago. I realize that now is not a good time in my life to invest in quality furniture. 3 boys + nice furniture = Mommy Meltdowns. I was going to go back to Ikea and just buy some more cheapy cheapies. But next door to Julia's house was an estate sale and there were these 5 gold metal folding chairs for $20. So I bought them and spent $10 on spray paint and VOILA!(that's french) I have to say I'm pretty happy with the results. We will see if they hold up. But for $30 who cares right? I guess I should have taken a before picture, oh well next time.

Hey Ruth-- I got to your blog from Kim's and I love what you have done with the chairs. Very creative!
WOW! Those look great! I can't believe they are folding chairs. Long after the table dies you will probable still have those chairs!
Great color...were painting right now. We really should meet up at Disneyland. We move thurs. so after things settle down I'll email.
amazing!!!! looks like you would have spent some major moolah! love it!
Ugh! I know how you feel. We just got a nice heavy duty sturdy set around Thanksgiving last year. Thank God! Ours were pathetic, and hazardous. That took oodles of husband persuasion.
