These are the chairs I did for my church auction. They are pine – put a light primer coat on and they are ready to go to the highest bidder.

These are awesome Betsy! They look great as a set. I like how the table matches the design of the chair backs. Top notch.

Thanks guys.

Matt – yes. Most people who opt for the pine chairs want to match the chairs to their house trim or deck trim. I prime them because most folks I know will skip that step and just put on the finish coat color and regret it later.

Betsy, Great job… all we need now is some lemonade and a mild breeze.

Every enovative design adaptations. I don’t think I have ever seen any others like them. Looks great.

Hi Betsy,

I thought that I was getting a little punchy from all the reviews I have posted tonight and I could not find my comment in here. I knew that I had seen this one before. Chalk it up to a temporary senior moment when I forgot about the blog list that I had gone through earlier.

Thanks for clarifying my question about the footstool too. Somehow I didn’t think that you would execute two separate builds but oftentimes I tend to be gullible enough to believe what I see.

These chairs and accompaniments should draw a premium for your Church. Nice work.

Thanks all. Hopefully these will bring in some good cash for the church. We have a large food ministry that could use extra money for gas!
