This past week I have been working on a project for myself. This never happens….so this makes me happy.
I was at an event and seen this chair for sale in another booth and I WANTED IT….BADLY.
It was love at first sight and I had a vision going off in my mind of what I was going to do with this chair. I brought it home and my craft master tighten the rickety chair for me with some glue and clamps. I washed it down and got it all cleaned up.
I had some fabric that I wanted to make a padded seat with so the craft master got some good plywood from the orange warehouse store and cut a seat for it. Since I had lost my staple gun, we had to go to blue warehouse store and buy a new one.
Did you know that the orange store has 3” foam there now? Way much cheaper than the same thing at the sewing or craft stores. SO… I got a sheet of that and cut out the padding for my chair. 3” was to thick so I cut it to 1” and wrapped it with quilt batting to hold everything in place.
I got my seat all done and this is my first time ever trying to upholster anything. Then my craft master painted the chair a yellow with a brown glazing over it. Love it!!!
Here is my finished product.
I am in love with this chair and it will go in my bedroom.
