Corporate Chairs All Toiled Up

A client recently gave me a pair of corporate chairs from her office.

 Sturdy, nothing wrong with them...

 Just, well, corporate..

But not for long!

 I began this makeover by pulling off all the old piping and staples.

Then I sanded, painted & waxed the wooden frames. 

I used Annie Sloan in Duck Egg.

After the chair frames were completed, 

I went to my fabric treasure trove.

I selected this set of black and white toile drapes 

for the reupholstery.

 One down, one to go…

After stapling and trimming all the edges,

I trimmed the front and bottom in grey gimp.

For the back, I used nickel nail head trim.

 Perfectly lovely. 

These will be heading to Greenwood Antiques & Uniques.

Price: $330 for the pair.

Next up…….this pair I just purchased on Craigslist. 

Stay tuned! I have no idea what I'm gonna do yet, 

but they'll be cool!!!!!!!!!
