Partial under-quality photos warning. Please see past my lack of skills and patience. I found this slipper chair at Goodwill for $7! The blue silk on it wasn't too bad, but it was stained and I really wanted to go for a more modern look.
In this pic I had already taken my handy dandy screwdriver and removed some of the staples
I really do like the legs. Before, the chair had a ruffle to cover them up, the ruffle was decent but I want this girl to show off her legs!
I covered her with a plastic bag and used Krylon Blue Ocean Breeze spraypaint to paint the wood. It took a few coats, then I let it dry
Then I used the remnants of fabric from the chair to cut out pieces of this floral sheet. I have heard that I probably shouldn't use a sheet to reupholster my chair but I guess we'll see...
Now my friends, its time to wait for part two...I'm hoping to attack this project like a polar bear on seal this weekend (Eww sorry for that mental graphic). Anyways...pictures are on their way!!!
I am also linking today to French Country Cottage and Miss Mustard Seed.
Looks like it's going to be a great project~ thanks for linking up at Feathered Nest Friday! :)
