One of the other items that I spotted was a vintage classroom chair. I immediately knew what I wanted to do with it. I wanted to make a girly chair for me and my daughter to use in the craft space.
It was in great condition with no tears or bends. |
While the frame was drying in out hot southern Mississippi sun, I was digging in my fabric stash for a coordinating remnant. I have the same print in pink with purple accents, but I had used it already for a skirt and my scraps would not cover the seat. It took no time at all to cut and staple the fabric to the cushions.
I was glad it was intact, because this would have been a bigger project if I had to remove the old vinyl & padding. |
I screwed the pieces back on & it was all finished! |
In these photos the chair appears more blue, but it is actually more purple. I am tickled that it was so simple & my daughter loves it. As soon as we finish the inside of our building, we are setting up our spaces & moving our new chair in. I look forward to spending many hours in our new space working on more projects. Have you ever recovered or re-purposed furniture? I would love to hear of your project stories.
God Bless,

Hi, thanks for stopping by my pillow post. I wanted to let you know your comments are set to " no reply", which means there isn't an email address attached to your blog. I have a tutorial on the quick fix on my right side bar, if you ever want to change that.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention Karen. I assumed it was just a privacy issue, not a contact issue. I have reset it and I will see how it works. Thanks again.
