Re-Upholstery Project

Posted by Tina / 2 comments » / DIY Projects, Home & Garden

Mike and I are all about re-purposing something that others might see as “ugly”, reworking them, and making them look HOT.

Our latest project was a set of chairs. We bought them on Craigslist for DIRT cheap. We then deconstructed them, de-stapled them (this took HOURS), painted them, laquered them, and then brought them to an upholsterer to re-upholster them with fabric we bought on sale at Joann’s. Below is the before and after shots (i LOVE them):

Before (Hideous – i know):

During (we took it down to the frame):

After (LOVE!!):

    Hey Girl,
    What is the name of the fabric you used? I have two chairs I have had for over two years just wating to be redone!
