Rustic Elegance
Rustic Elegance? I am not sure if that is a real thing or a defined style. But that is what I am calling this little dining set.
It started as a pile of pallet wood and two little restaurant, red vinyl covered chairs.
The table is the rustic part. I added a little cream and turquoise paint under the grey.
I do not know what type of wood the top is made of, but goodness, this was the heaviest and hardest pallet wood I have ever used.
The chairs are the elegant part,
Yes, their chippy grey paint is still rustic, but the fabric adds a touch of elegance.
I perfect little dining set for a hip college apartment or a covered patio or porch.
PS--Don't you adore these little turquoise dessert dishes? They are from an antique store, I got 10 of them for $12 and are the perfect size for many different delicious foods.

ReplyDeleteI saw the cutest chippy farm table while thrifting the other day... I said to myself... I must make one of these! :) I need to make one. :) maybe the next cool break we get... but alas, I don't use pallet wood. I'm too lazy to take it apart...have you ever said how you do it?

Really nicely done. I especially like the fabric on the chairs and the "matching" plate and bowl. Beautiful! And, rustic elegance is a perfect name for it!
