So, I was feeling a tad crafty yesterday. Or I was just tired of looking at the sad sad chairs in our kitchen. You decide.
Anyways, I got the idea to recover my chairs!
I have had these chairs since college and they are in really good condition except that fabric on the chair which has water stains and a ink stain from all the moves they have endured. I have tried to clean them before but it just made it worse.
I did it a slightly ghetto way. I only say ghetto because I didn't remove the seat from the chair!!)
All you need is :
Fabric you want to use to recover the chair with
Staple gun
Scissors
And Whola! You just gave your chair a face lift! It took all of an hour!
Here are my before and after! It was just like wrapping a present!
Here is my before. Eww right? The fabric on the chair was the original fabric I was going to use. But my mom had some extra fabric that was bright and would add a nice pop to the room. |
Finished product! Not too shabby huh?! Here is to a fantasically fun and crafty Sunday! |
Wow! What a difference! You did a great job and it didn't cost you any money since you used your mom's remnants. The colors do pop! Nice! :)
