I'm kind of excited.
Why?
Because. I'm delving into something I've never done before.
I've always been interested in interior design and all that lovely stuff.
Yesterday, Anna found a chair on the side of the road while she was biking.
I ran up there to see it, a blue thang in need of some TLC but not too smelly or rundown.
So, since then, I've been looking everywhere online
(ebay, amazon, you name it) for tips and how-to's on reupholstering, and sheets that I like, at decent prices.
This lady recommended that idea. Sounds good to me.
This is a shot of it with a random large-floral-printed sheet draped over it. Which I'm kinda taking a liking to.
I was having my third cup of coffee for the day, as well as studying the aforementioned-and-linked-to article on reupholstery. The wind is kicking up today, and oh-so-cool. I do believe autumn is pretty much here to stay...we'll have to see. :)
My chair is currently sitting in an empty half of the garage which Ben just reorganized the other day. Quite nice.
I'm excited. But I can't really move on until I actually have fabric in my hands... so, more on that later!!

Oh, I love the chair! Can't wait to see what you'll do with it :)
love, love the chair. You will have to post pictures when you are done with it :)
Gosh you're adorable.
That is all :)
That looks like a fun and challenging project. I love finding things on the side of the road. That's how we got our wood coffee table. :P
I have a similar chair that's purple that I got at goodwill, or rather, my friend got it, I kept asking to borrow it for photo shoots so she just gave it to me.
I'd love to re-do mine too but the buttons scare me. I have no idea where to start with the buttons.
Can't wait to see what you do with it! Great find!
can't wait to see this chair re-finished! i would love to learn how to do this although i'm not sure i have the patience!
Oh girl more power to ya. That looks like a big job! But you can do it:) It's gonna look great.
