dining table redo

Sometimes I just can't get rid of things.  Maybe I'm a hoarder.  Maybe I'm just sentimental.  Bret and I bought this dining set 34 years ago.  It was in my basement sewing room because I had replaced it with a glass top 15 years ago.  

Out with the glass and back to my old french country friend.  I sanded and painted the top and bought new chairs.  

Because I wanted to "up" the french look, I found chairs at World Market and while assembling them, I covered over the linen seat with a soft gray velvet.  They are very roomy and comfortable; perfect for guests to linger over dinner.

Feels like a hug from an old friend!
