on to the next one

now that i have finished this desk, which i still haven't decided where to place

and this....

i will begin this fun project
i've had these for awhile and have been stashing them

they are in really good condition so i think
if i prime and just paint they should be fine.
i plan to do a vibrant yellow for the fabric and
the wood will be painted black.





hopefully i can start this fairly soon.  gotta pick up the fabric, paint and staple gun.  stay tuned...

p.s.  i still don't have the internet hooked up at the new place, so my postings will be sparse until we get that taken care of.

  1. Oh my goodness, I have a chair exactly like this and I want to paint it black too! I am thinking about upholstering it in linen and making some fun buttons on the tufting. I can't wait to see how yours turns out and maybe it will inspire me to start mine!

  3. Wow, I love those chairs - my husband's aunt has some very similar ones that I have been lusting after for a long time. I'm sure they'll look fabulous when they are finished.
