MY PROJECT!
My client got this hand me down chair from her husbands aunt. It's been sitting in the corner of her basement.
Chair--BEFORE--a bit dated and stained.
Chair--AFTER-- She picked this great orange zebra fabric and some turquoise fabric for pillows.
Since my client was worried about the slipcover shifting and showing underneath--especially since we weren't doing a skirt. I did a 1.5" casing around the base and cinched it tight with a cord and tied it around the back leg. This way it won't go anywhere, which is good because the original fabric is slippery.
DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!
O.K. this chair is completely awesome! I have some green zebra print that I am planning on using for this exact style of chair. This motivates me to get it done. Can't wait for my funky chair!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! You definitely made the world a better place by hiding that pink satin lol
ReplyDeleteShelley, once again you have done an amazing job. And I would definitely paint the legs turquoise if that were my chair!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job! I love that fabric! It makes such a statement! Fun!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to vote and I keep getting an error message. Love this chair!!!
ReplyDeleteI think this chair is just awesome!! I've been looking for two similar chairs and have wanted to put zebra print on them - probably not orange because I'm not cool enough for that, but LOVE LOVE how it turned out!
