Before & After Farmhouse Dining Set

This dining set was a freebie! Thanks to my wonderful friend Kara who is realtor, and had a client selling their home, and wanted to get rid of this dining set! How's that for a deal!
I know it doesn't look like much. It was in good solid condition, and just needed a facelift! The farmhouse style is very popular, and a customer of mine was looking for a table so he bought  it, and I customized it for him! 

We sanded the top down to the natural finish just like he wanted, and did four coats of tung oil in a satin finish. The chairs and table legs I painted Graphite (ASCP) with a clear wax finish.
I think it really updated the set, and now I actually like it! Never underestimate the power of paint my friends!
