Ellie loves her new table, and I had so much fun sprucing it up! I started out with Ikea's Lätt table and chairs. It looks like this:
The thing I love about this table is it's only $25. That's a steal for a new table and chairs! The only problem is it's a little boring. To spice it up I painted the legs and frame of both the table and chairs (before assembling). I wanted to use multiple colors to make it really fun. I then added some foam and upholstered the chairs. I figured this would make them more comfortable, and make them look a little nicer. I used some fabric and foam that I jag left over from other projects and bought the vinyl (it's super cheap at Walmart). Check out my previous post on how to cover a seat.
After the paint was dry, I assembled according to the Ikea directions. I had to get a little creative and use some muscle in the chairs, but it came together perfectly. I love how they turned out!
