Snowy Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 Not sure if this is crafting or not - it was certainly therapeutic! I bought six dining chairs off ebay to replace the ones that match our dining table that are falling apart. I thought they were pine but when I got them they are stained a horrid dark mahogany colour. To cap it all, when I put them round the table they wouldn't go underneath and stuck out so you couldn't walk around the table. (Oh yes, and they were too narrow to accomodate generous proportions ) But they were only £30, so drastic action needed. Before: After: So I got OH's jigsaw out I left the arms on two of them. Daniel helped with the painting: Ta da! All primed with white paint and awaiting a coat (or two) of white gloss. Much better! Now they all fit under the table, and are nice and solid Now what else can I use the jigsaw on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
