Do you have an old wood farmhouse dining set in need of some love?
I updated this set of four chairs with bright colors and the white base complements them perfectly. Let’s go through the process – it’s such an easy transformation.

How To:
The first step for my project was to give everything a really good cleaning with White Lightning.
This product is perfect for getting rid of dirt, grime, and grease – especially on antique or vintage furniture.

Next, I decided to paint the farmhouse chairs in two contrasting colors just to do something different.
Farmhouse style is typically the stark, clean white distressed with wood tones, but I wanted to mix it up a bit.
I painted in the chairs in Barn Red and Daisy.
Then, the base of the table was Drop Cloth and sealed with Gator Hide. Drop Cloth is the #1 Dixie Belle color and I completely understand why!
Use your preferred amount of distressing to achieve that worn, farmhouse look. Seal with Gatorhide or wax, and voila – your new farmhouse dining room or kitchen dining set upcycled.
