My Chair Lady...(see what I did there?)

So I had these chairs.  I might have paid a very small amount for them.  In fact, I may have paid $.50 a piece for them.  And why not?  They were in pretty rough shape....

So I did what I do...ripped those sucker APART!

Then I added a little DIY chalk paint, which was very arduously applied and then unceremoniously sanded off.

I decided to forego the old springs and just added strapping.

Then I hit a snag.  I didn't have quite enough of this fabric, which has been in my stash for years.  I looked on eBay and evidently Richloom Fragonard is hot right now, selling for about $40.00 to $65.00 per YARD.  Yeah, that's not going to happen.  So I had to get a little creative.  Suffice it to say, I have not one inch of this fabric left.

After some seam ripping and the ever present swear words.  They are done.

So much better!
