Before, we had a long rectangular farmhouse table (second-hand craigslist find) which I also refurbished, with a 4 chairs and a bench. We used it for a while, but it just felt to big for the space, so out it went to the covered patio where we enjoy it on beautiful California evenings!
Now I have always loved the look and tone of round tables. They bring family closer at dinner time, with everyone gathered around facing each other. This particular table, I also found 2nd hand but needed to be spruced up. It was a dark cherry finish. With a simple paint and wax technique, it was transformed into a set we absolutely love and that gives us much more room!
Here it is, our beautiful 7 piece dining room set (without the high price tag too!) featuring a round solid antique craftsman style table that has been refinished in a sun drenched weathered oak. It seats six comfortably but does include 2 leaves for more seating.
The 4 cafe style wooden chairs and 2 end parlor chairs have also been refurbished in weathered oak and beautifully complete this set.
Other summer pieces I had fun with this summer!
