My latest project.

Here it is:

The finish looks white, but it's technically Revere Pewter. I am happy with the end results, but still adjusting from going from a dark table to a light table. 

(I looked for a "before" pic, but can't find a good one right now and don't have any more time to search.... sorry.)

The finish is SOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER, however. The original finish was horrible. If I recall correctly, you weren't supposed to wipe the table with a wet cloth... ever. IT'S A TABLE, for goodness sake. Needless to say, it now wipes up, with a wet cloth, like a charm. That, in and of itself, is worth the tedium of the project.

The most tiresome part of the process HAD to be pulling out the dang staples from the seat cushions.

One of the chairs was not like the others, and had a boatload of rusted staples. They would just break off as I tried to pry and pull them out. I had a nightmare the other evening that I had to re-cover ALL the chairs again, and I woke up feeling sick.

I didn't take any pics of the process, but let it be known that it was tiresome and tedious and that I got blisters on my fingers and on my knees.

I'm so glad it's done.

Pretty much.

I will probably make tie-on seat covers in the near future. Ugh. I'm not looking forward to sewing them, but know it will be worth the effort in the end.
