I've been wanting to recover our dining room chairs for some time. After almost three years, I think we finally have gotten rid of extra furniture and only have what we want to keep (for now). Our dining room set was a given to us by my sister-in-law in exchange for our couch and coffee tables. A pretty sweet trade if you ask me.
The seat covers were a bit worn and in need of a makeover:
Plus, we just painted our living room a soft green and the red and green didn't jive. :)
I have an awesomely creative friend (who also painted a beautiful mural in our nursery) who I recruited to help me. We found a great fabric place and bought the fabric I had in mind...and on sale!
30 bucks + staple gun + 1-2 hours of work =
Ta-da!
I'm so pleased with the way they turned out and it was way
easier than I thought it would be. Now, if only painting the dining room was
this simple. But that's for another day when my next creative moment strikes.
