DETROIT SPORTS TEAM SWIVEL BAR STOOLS (SET OF 4)
I've been so excited about Detroit's development boom, that I decided to paint these Windsor bar stools in a Detroit sports theme. One for each of the city's four major pro teams: Detroit Lions football, Detroit Red Wings hockey, Detroit Pistons basketball and Detroit Tigers baseball.
These stools are super sturdy, solid wood with comfortable swivel seats. They were made by John Thomas Furniture. (John Thomas Furniture has proudly been crafting the finest solid wood home furnishings since 1982. They are inherently committed to offering the most beautiful, long lasting, affordable home furnishings. Their products are made entirely of Parawood, which is part of the maple family. It is valued for its dense grain, minimal shrinkage, attractive light color and ease of finishing. It is also prized as an "environmentally friendly" wood, as it makes use of plantation grown trees that have been cut down at the end of their latex-producing cycle.)
Dimensions: 39.5" tall, 24" seat-to-floor, 18" wide/16.5" deep seat
Original Price: $300 for the set. SALE PRICE: $200 for the set.

THE ELIZABETHAN
I found this 1920s Elizabethan-style dining chair at a garage sale. I was immediately attracted to the bulbous turned legs. The heavy, melon-like wood design was popular during the early Renaissance in Holland, England, France and Italy, and common to most European styles from the Renaissance on. The Dutch passed it on to the English, who made it an outstanding characteristic of their furniture in the 16th and 17th centuries. I had to replace the seat board, cushion and fabric and tighten all the joints. I also decoupaged a section of the fabric to add decoration to the center section of the back panel.
Dimensions: 42" tall, 19" seat-to-floor, 19.5" wide
Original Price: $100. SALE PRICE: $50.

COUNTRY GARDEN CHAIR PLANTER
I found this chair at a garage sale and loved the carvings on the crest rail. The opening in the seat made it a perfect choice for a garden chair. I found the bucket at the Greenmead Flea Market and felt it complimented the vision I had for the design along with the "Bless the Home" pig, metal star and grape vine. I drilled several holes in the bottom of the bucket for drainage. The chair has been painted with exterior paint and 4 coats of exterior varnish.
Please keep in mind that even the best finishes wear and break down over time when exposed to the elements. So expect, that if left outdoors, the chair will most likely need re-coating every year or two.
Dimensions: 37" high, 17.5" seat-to-floor, 16" x 14" seat
Original Price: $75. SALE PRICE: $50.
