This sweet little trestle table and set of four chairs came by way of a yard sale. I love it when you find a table and chairs all together!
There really was not a thing wrong with them other than the fact that they were just very brown. I am not particularly a fan of oak and maybe they matched just a bit too much.
I thought the chairs were especially sweet!
So I kept it really simle and just painted the table in a creamy shade of homemade chalk paint and I just cleaned up the chairs.
I love it when a table and chairs relate, but don't necessarily match.
It would have worked just as well the other way around - painting the chairs and keeping the table natural wood.
The table got a light distressing ...
and a coat of wax for durability.
This set would be perfect in a cottage kitchen or
maybe on a screened porch for summer dining!

Cute and a different twist. People usually paint the chairs. I love the lines of the chairs. xo Diana
Love what you did with the table, Sharon!! What a cute set. Megan
i love this set! i am looking for something like it for my porch, but a longer table that can fit a lot of people for all the parties i want to throw. ;) supercute though- i love that you left the chairs wood!
So cute! love the table!!!!
Very pretty! I do love those chairs.
I totally agree that the brown needed to be broken up a bit. Great makeover!
Very sweet find!
So pretty Sharon! That will be snatched up quickly at your summer tag sale!
Hi, Elizabeth!
Adorable! This would be a great kitchen table!
I love the mix of white paint and wood. Makes it seem a bit fresher :) Very nice.
Fantastic! I love Trestle tables! Great job, Sharon!
Totally SWEET!
Lucky to find such a great set! Both the table and chairs have great character!
Very cute set, Sharon, this set looks stylish! Have to look up about homemade chalk paint.
Lovely set! I don't prefer matchy matchy either. :)
