Table Scraps: Part 2

My refinishing project is complete! The table and chairs were finished a while ago and I am just slacking posting the details. Do you know what was the hardest part? Ok, there were two really hard things. Using the staple gun and trying to make sure the nails did not to go through the chair! Finding a trim that worked by hot gluing it AND one that was wide enough to cover my mistakes and the staples. Maybe that is really four or five things!

I went to Joann's five times before I picked a fabric. I went to Joann's three times and bought trim (that I could not return). One of them unraveled when I cut it. Two of them were too thin. I finally drove 30 minutes away to a discount fabric store and found a trim that would work.

I am so happy with how it turned out and I love the peacock feather fabric. It is a perfect fit for my purple dining room.

Things I learned from the fabric/trim process.
1. Hot glue burns.
2. You don't need as much glue as you think you do.
3. Invest in a really nice staple gun.
4. A black sharpie is a great mistake hider!
