Our landlord happens to have a similar niche for collecting old things. He had this table and chairs down in our basement for quite sometime. I also collected the 2 stools and had them saved for a rainy day to work on. I had been low on inventory to work on and remembered there was a little table downstairs and thought to add the stools as a seating combo. I had been wanting to try out a few new techniques; both taping to create a lettering stencil and the dip-dye method. Each item is all wood and I love the varying of colors the dye picked up in the different grains of wood. Great little set for a cozy small spaced nook.
