I know it has been a while since I have written a blog post. I've been a busy girl & a little under the weather. My father was sick & in the hospital for a couple of days, and then this girl got sick & ended up in the ER. What I thought was a sinus infection turned into Acute Bronchitis. It was not a fun Memorial Day weekend for me, but I survived.
I've been hitting up a few auctions here & there. I have found lots of fun finds!! One (or two...) was this set of wonderful chairs.
I was originally going to leave them just the way they are seen here.
But, then I as I was wiping them down a big red stain showed it's ugly face.
I tried to get it out.... The fabric then started to fade...
So, I decided to try my hand at painting fabric!!
I have been wanting to try painting fabric, but I hadn't found anything to try it on. I will do a completely separate post on how I accomplished this :)
I took the cushion off... Did ya notice that?
I just loved how they looked without the cushion. Plus I am a decent height & when I sat in them with the cushion my feet didn't even touch the floor.
Luckily they are more comfortable without the cushion anyhow!!
Want to see a side by side??
I really do love how they turned out!! I even added a little bling to them.. Did you notice them?
I hope you enjoyed seeing this lovely transformation!!

ReplyDeleteThank you Trina :)
DeleteWowza!
ReplyDeleteWow, what pretty and unique chairs. I'm intrigued by the idea of painting fabric!
ReplyDeleteI love everything about these chairs! I want these chairs! LOL! I look forward to hearing more about how you painted the fabric. I have a wingback chair up in my garage that I painted and it is so stiff. Maybe you have some tips to make it feel softer.
