Painting...again...

I finally started painting the two dinning room chairs {opposite the white bench}...here are a few before and in progress photos.  I like the dark wood but it is really hard to keep clean, you would think it would be easy to manage but it's not!  It shows all the dust, dropped crumbs and scratch marks.  I did a light sanding with the palm sander, a coat of primer, and two coats of paint.  After the last coat is dry I will do a light distressing then spray a clear coat to help them withstand two little ones :)

Will post the finished pics tomorrow!  Have a great Sunday!
