The Mauri Chairs - Custom Refinish Before & After

These barstool chairs were brought to us to be painted white and slightly distressed. Our dining chairs are finished in this same yellowish color so when I saw these completed I was very excited to get our vintage white paint on our chairs to give it a fresh clean look just like these!
Before After
These chairs have amazing backs. I love the detail.
Our client removed the cushioned seat before she dropped them by so I would love to see them completely finished.

Love the crossed backs!

Mike is still working on the black dining set and I am super excited to show the before and after of its transformation.

I think that we are finally going to get to a few of our projects as well. Our barnwood kitchen table and chairs and maybe even the Gardner Hutch.

Plus we picked up an amazing oil painting at an amazing price. We will be painting the frame and I cannot wait to show it as well!

Happy Monday!

    The backs on those chairs are fantastic! Totally a high end, West Elm look. I didn't even notice that particular detail until after you painted them too. I wandered over here from Holly's Fresh Paint Friday and I'm totally glad I did!
