Mr. and Mrs. Reath!

This weekend I attended Mary and Blair's wedding in Atlanta. Mary is a fellow blogger, ZTA sister, and close friend. It was like a reunion for my girlfriends and it was a blast. Everything was wonderful and Mary was so beautiful! They just love each other so much and it was obvious across their faces all night!

Whoever mediates this site is freaking hysterical and creative!

Weekend Project: Refinished Table + Chairs

As you can see from my post yesterday, I bought a table and chairs from a resale shop and this weekend we made it our project. I can't believe we finished it all today! The only thing I have left to do is get some fabric to cover the chairs. Pattern ideas will come tomorrow!

Here is the process of our refinished table and chairs! Thanks TyTy for being such a great sport!!

My Big Girl Purchase!

A house? No.

A new car? I wish.

Instead, I bought....

A kitchen table and chairs!!!

Yesterday my coworker Gayle and I went to the Mexican restaurant and she had never been in the resale/thrift store next to it, so we just went in for kicks and giggles. We walked to the furniture section and BOOM I saw a table and chairs I HAD to have!

I am no antiquer nor do I really get excited about furniture, but I called Tyler immediately and said, how do you feel about a $65 table + 6 chairs for your next house (he's moving soon and has no kitchen table or chairs.) I was a little hesitant and thought about coming back another day but then Gayle just said "Oh  just do it!!!" So, I bought them and was super pumped the rest of the afternoon! I then went straight to Pinterest to get inspiration about how I was going to complete give them a new makeover.

This is what I decided on, thanks to Fran @ eleven-o-one's blog.

Hello inspiration. We are obsessed!

This morning Tyler and I went to Arthur where I work to pick them up. Then we went to the hardware store to get ALL of our supplies (yikes so pricy but so worth it). We got all kinds of things. When I get on a mission for a project, I want to do it right away!! 

That's all for now, I promise the whole process will come later. We just finished stripping the table, taking off the awfully ugly chair covers, and sanding the table legs to PAINT tomorrow! 
I'm going to need YOUR help soon thinking of a cute (but semi masculine-ish) print for the chair covers. Hopefully my mom will be good in this department since she is an interior designer! 

Thanks for reading!!
