Dining table and chairs painted

I spent the weekend painting the table and chairs (the £30 bargain from the auction) and a set of drawers which was a wedding present over 25 years ago I must take my hat off to those of you who paint it by hand!! I used a spray gun and painted it Farrow and Ball white tie emulsion then varnished it with water based varnish


I got the small tyrone crystal vase and dish on this drawers for £1 at the car boot sales yesterday!!

They both look lovely, well done! I always paint by hand, but I have been eyeing up a paint sprayer for a while now. Which one have you got? x
