A Chair to remember (or two)
Sorry, I couldn't resist the title for this project (An Affair to remember...anyone..Bueller?) Well, I found this amazing material that I instantly fell in love with while searching for the material for my fabric covered corkboard. I knew immediately what I wanted to do with it. I purchased this breakfast bar(ish) table and chair set so I could have some semblance of a dining area in the apartment. I decided to warm it up a bit and upholster the seats with this amazing fabric that went perfectly with the tone of the decor currently.
Materials:
Here is the chair before:
Materials:
- 1 yard of fabric (only $10 thanks to another sale at Fabricland)
- Scissors
- Chair cushion (on sale for $6 at Walmart, they were pretty awful but you never have to see them)
- Staple Gun and staples
- Hot Glue
- Chair (ya, I know you probably know this one but I thought I'd include it just in case)
Here is the chair before:
Basically I took the cushion and set it on the seat of the chair. I used a hot glue gun to keep it on the seat of the chair (this is definitely not how the pros do it, but it works) and then I flipped the chair upside down and used a staple gun to staple the fabric on the underside of the seat. I did this all around the seat of the chair, pulling the fabric flush against the cushion the whole time.
I really like the way it looks and they are much more comfy!
Here's the end result of the whole table all together :)
