Good Questions: Paint or Stain Ideas For This Chair?

8.1chair2.jpg Dear AT,

I have this chair that I got at a garage sale.

I am currently in the process of stripping it of a nasty green paint.

I'm not sure what to do with it-stain, paint, etc.

Any suggestions?

Thanks! Mireille

Well, it depends... what's your decor, what do you want it to go with?

i agree, totally depends on your style.
However we just bought a few similar chairs. We are doing a high gloss white and then on just one or 2 doing a high gloss neon green for some pop in a corner.

I'd simply paint it black - Black goes w/ everything.

Nice find! I also recently acquired 4 of such chairs. They were in pretty good condition, so I just murfy-soaped them and used restor-a-finish in dark oak. I love them!
