Double chair makeover- red under black


Hello, all!  This is a makeover that I did for a friend of the family- my first paying job!  She wanted these two chairs made over with black paint over red paint, and then distressed so the red shows through underneath.  It took me a long time to get these done, due to the fact that they had the double paint colors and of course..there were two.  I think they came out really amazing, though!  She liked them enough to ask me to makeover another piece of her furniture, so I guess I did OK. I never saw the seats, but I think she is going to use something with a bold print.  I thought they would look cool with a bright colorful print of some sort.   Take a look-



 This is when one chair already had two colors on it, and the other was about to turn black.  just wanted to show the red underneath.

These are the chairs before.  Just blond wood, light finish.  Definitely more stylish now, I would say. ;)
