So, I took the seats off the chairs...
And gave them a coat of paint (Spray paint 1 can per chair)
The spray paint was cheap ass shit and the chairs looked they sat through a fire instead of being black
So I went out and got a few cans of some nice high gloss acrylic black paint, and attacked the table...
Originally I was just going to make the bars and legs black but I got a bit carried away
After I re-painted all the chairs it was time to bring them inside to reupholster all the chair seats.
They looked pretty damn good if I do say so myself
Put everything where it needed to go, added some shit to the window area and viola'
I went overboard with the 2nd coat of paint on the tabletop so it bubbled up in spots, so I decided to cover up the bulk of the "scaring" with some leftover seat cover material...
All in all I think my first attempt looks damn good  AND I only 'lost' one chair in the process, (Bars broke off, and either need to be replaced or find a new chair.)
What do you think?
And feel free to flame, BUT be original and don't just call me a "Queer Eye" lol
