Week 11: Our most recent DIY project

If you know Steve and I then you know we love DIY little projects to keep up entertained. We currently had a 4 person dining room table until the other day. My friend, Neang in Kansas gave Steve and I her old dining room table. It has 6 chairs which is what we were looking for since our new house has a pretty decent sized dining room. The table was in great shape and the chairs were too. The seat cushions just needed to have a little make over. Neither of us had ever re-upholstered anything but we knew it couldn't be too much work. After a short YouTube video and a trip to  Walmart to pick out the fabric, we got to work. Steve's favorite part was of course using the staple gun a million times.
