Working outside at 8:30pm to get it done before night fall!
Fast, easy and cheap! Sounds good to me~
I debated on whether or not to even distress this set, but the unanimous feedback from the family was DO IT! That is what makes my pieces a little unique, right? But I still went easy and just did a minimal amount.

A QUICK NOTE:
Thank you SOOO much to everyone for all the wonderful comments and questions! It is actually overwhelming how many emails I get everyday. This week alone I have already responded to over 100. So please be patient, I promise I will get back to everyone. If you have a question in particular about anything I appreciate you asking in the comments section, but it is easier for me to keep track of what I have or haven't answered if you ask me in an email.
Now we are off to the cabin for the weekend to enjoy a HUGE family reunion! Have a great weekend everyone~

Love it! Do you always use a paint sprayer? I'm concerned about using one inside (painting kitchen cabinets) and thought I would ask you.
Wow Holly! Another wonderful piece, all pretty and white, love it!
I love your blog!!!
What do you use to varnish with?
It is Awesome!!! I'm taking forever with mine as I'm using stupid spray paint and can't get the top quite right...then again..I'm going to distress it too!
WOW!!! You truly are very talented! I enjoy looking at ALL of your pieces! Now I need to take your inspiration and use some of it on my long-awaiting paint projects! :-/ [I think I like viewing your's better!]
Thanks for sharing!

Hey Holly! Beautiful!! Love that you distressed it. I would also love to know what varnish you use to topcoat? Have a great weekend at your cabin!
Quick? I wish my quick projects turned half as great as yours do. Another stunning job!
It looks absolutely FABULOUS!! Love it! I Love how you put the slip covered chairs at the end.
Awesome!
Have a great weekend!
Once again...I'm stunned, amazed, inspired list goes on and on...You should SERIOUSLY open up a shop selling this stuff! I linked your blog btw. Thanks so much for letting me share your wonderful talent! Have a fun weekend!! xoxo
LOVE IT! I think your love of white has really rubbed off on me. I only wish our black dogs didn't shed like it's going out of style. Oh, I love pedestal tables like crazy too. I have two in our little house.
Thanks for the comment on the sideboard...I decided to keep it the dark stain. =) I love your blog, I've been following it for a few months.
Love it- Love it- Love it-
A+
Have a wonderful weekend!

wow! you are amazing with that paint gun! good job!
you are coming with the bees knees girl...one after another..pow pow..
Look out! Gorgeous girl with a spray gun! I bet your husband loves it. Love seeing the awesome pictures of your furniture rehab. Have a great weekend. xoxo
If I lived in your area I would be buying things from you all the time! You make me want to just paint my whole house white :)
I love your blog!! I want to be like you when i grow up!!!
As always it looks great!!! What did you do with the old table?
I love this Emily!
1st, who is Emily? (see above)
2nd, I love this! It's so great! I love the detail on the back of the chairs too... so perfect! Now your dining room that was in need of some furniture looks almost complete... is it?
Great job ~ and your floors are just gorgeous!
Beautiful! Gosh, I wish I lived near you!! I love the distress look. Is there a trick to doing that or just fine sand paper and go to town where you want the distressing?
Fabulous as always
I agree with only the light distressing, esp since the dresser is more heavily. Do you varnish after the paint, and if so what do you use? Do you like a wipe on or a spray on more. Oh, and I hope you're wearing a mask with all of this painting and sanding you're doing- got to protect those lungs!
(I learned this first hand after spray painting without one all day and it definitely affected my breathing and made me feel sick later, so I learned the hard way!)
Hi there. Just found your blog and wanted to say hello. The table and chairs turned out beautiful. And how smart of you to use a spray gun instead of the old fashion way that takes forrreverrrr!! I'm off to look around some more. Have a great week!
You are so inspiring! What type of spray gun do you recommend? What brand of paint? Do you sand first?
Thanks for the help!
An amazing transformation once again! You have an AWARD waiting for you on my blog so be sure to stop by!! :)
What finish of paint do you use...flat, eggshell? Also what kind of sprayer do you use?
I too was interested in the brand of sprayer you use because mine is awful!!
Okay, I looooove your stuff! I would never think to buy that ugly looking brown table but you made it look beautiful! Yes, I am loving white because of you. And yes, if I lived near you I would be buying stuff from you left and right or taking a class from you to make stuff myself!!! I think we would all love a tutorial if you're up for it sometime :)
I sooo need a sprayer!!
Once again, great job!
It looks great! I have a similar set in black that i'm looking to paint. Can you do more of a tutorial-type post sometime telling about the process? What kind of sprayer you use, the paint colors and brands you use, etc? I would love to know how you transform all of these pieces!
Awesome!! Work but well worth it.I 2 am a big fan of white.I really enjoyes your blog.Have you ever thought about joining up with White Wednesday?? I did.I will be doing a third post.Its fun!!

Beautiful! I have GOT to get a paint sprayer this weekend because I have so many projects I want to finish before our babies arrive!
this looks great! My husband would have so loved to be using your paint sprayer last night, poor guy.
Hi Holly - been reading your blog for a while now, and love your projects (and little Wren too, of course!)
Did you also make the slip covers for the other chairs?
wow.. looks fabulous.
The table and chairs look so wonderful! Job well done! :)

I've been reading your blog for a while now and love all that you do. We're moving soon into our first house and I'm already gathering ideas! (thanks for posting such beautiful makeovers).
And sorry to add to the email list. I totally know what you mean, I get many emails a week from my MADE site and though I love to respond to everyone it can be overwhelming at times. I just have a small question about your spray "can" in the picture there. Is that how you paint all your stuff? No paintbrushes involved? I'm getting ready to paint our beautiful old table (all white of course :)) and now that I see your picture....that might be the way to go! I assume you get one at Home Depot for not too much money?
Thank you! Please only respond if/when you can :)
