Trash to Treasure

I was headed home one day when I passed Lovell Self Storage hosting a huge yard sale. You see, when people won't pay their bill, their stuff gets unloaded for a yard sale. So I was happy to adopt this table and chairs and turn it into something that I think is BEAUTIFUL. I painted the table and chairs black, distressed them and then added a brown paint/Wipe-On Poly coat to give it this wonderful weathered look. I added these two toile chairs and now it's our breakfast table. What do you think? By the way the table was $15 and the chairs were $3 a piece. The toile chairs are new and were a lot more expensive. Anyway...here's some pics!!!
