4 Steps For a Coastal Furniture Makeover

Most of us have pretty fond memories of the dining table we grew up with. Ours was a hand-me-down antique set that belonged to my great grandparents, then my grandparents, and then my parents. The chairs had green vinyl upholstery and nail-head trim. and we beat the crap out of them. By the time I was a teenager the upholstery work my mom did was ripped to shreds and there were a lot of pieces, like arms, missing. I was embarrassed by it then, and now I want to get my hands on it. Oh, how things change.      The Brieses purchased a gorgeous, solid oak dining set and china cabinet years ago to host family dinners and make memories. The wood stain was on the darker side, and the same throughout the entire set. It was well loved, well used, but also well cared for. Most of the varnish was worn off but there wasn't any major damage to the wood. They challenged me to turn this giant hunk of oak into something they could love for years to come. Challenge accepted!
