More SheShe Chair Makeovers

9PM and I just finished today's assembly line.

Wow, I WORK HARD!!!

But it's SO gratifying….

Take a look at these pieces I finally finished up today.

 BEFORE: I love the decorative top to this chair….

but time for a new look.

 I pulled off the upholstery...

Painted the frame…….

removed about a zillion tacks…….

and then covered the seat in batting.

Next: Distress sanding and waxing.

Then I reupholstered in this taupe with coral motif.

(I still need to add the gimp, 

but you get the gist of it anyway…)

This is a great occasional chair.

Very comfy.

 BEFORE: Little deco vanity seat….

I found this one in the alley….

 I painted the wood frame. Of course...

 And i decided to use this old metal stencil 

that I bought this weekend 

at an antique store on the way to the beach.

 AFTER: Looks great!  

I plumped up the seat with some batting

and upholstered in this oatmeal linen with stripes.

 

BEFORE: Okay, this chair isn't so bad….

but it has this crackle finish that I hate.

 So I had to sand/peel off all that layer, 

and might I say, this was QUITE time consuming….

So now I'm ready to repaint.,..

 I painted in two coats of white chalk paint….

And here it is all finished.

I added some taupe dry brushing, 

then I distress sanded and waxed.

And I had just enough of the coral print to recover the seat...

Not bad for a day's work.

These are all for sale, 

so please inquire if you're interested.

L: $125; middle: $99; R: $185

They'll be heading to one of my booths 

unless they sell before I get them in the car...

And now, it's IPA time…..

and I am SO ready………..
