  • Here is the chair after a lot of TLC! I used ASCP, distressed the edges, and finished with Annie Sloan clear wax on the painted sections and semi-gloss poly on the seat.
  • The chair back had beautiful wood veneer, but was badly chipping.
  • We repaired the chair with wood putty and sanded smooth after it dried.
  • I then painted the chair (the the exception of the seat) using Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Old White. I also used the inside (or inverse) of a bird stencil and painted around it, removing the stencil while the paint was still wet.

  • I purchased the vinyl tablecloth at Walmart. I thought the checks with the inset stars was perfect for the holiday.
  • I decided to keep the place settings simple. 
A woven charger from Goodwill, plain white dinner plates from Ikea, flatware from Family Dollar and napkins from Walmart.
  • For the centerpiece I placed white petunias into a planter from Ikea.
  • A wonderful way to start summer! 
Outside enjoying the sunshine and good food!

Rustic Tractor Seat Bar Stools

trunks, tractor seats and a few bolts. It's a really simple design but I think they look great! They won't live at my island forever, I plan to use them outside on the patio since its made from outdoor-friendly materials. Plus, it's all recycled! I think it's a great way to use what was headed for landfill and make into something useful and appealing all at the same time.
