Now that's just mean. I'm sure in some office in some walk of life at some point this was the MAC DADDY of office waiting room chairs. I'm just sure of it. But because of their obvious hideousness I got them for 4$ a piece... not bad for real wood and soft cushions. So I sanded down the chair recovered the seat and now it's like modern and fashionable and all around fantastic! I love love this makeover!!! By the way the tag on the bottom that you're suppose to leave on or else you'll go to jail.. ya that one, well somebody took that pretty seriously because the original tag was on i and it said June 1989... So I thought it would be fun to see what was happening in 1989
Well Reagen was president (ah the good ol' days) Kelly and Zack were being broken up by A.C. Slater, The Berlin wall was coming down, Hurricane Hugo (which I lived through) hit Charleston S.C. as cat 4, New Kids on the Block were hotter than Katy Perry or Beyonce and apparently this chair was an asset in any up and coming office place. Go figure
I really, really love what you did with these chairs. I need some! I'd better start looking around. You did a beautiful job!

ReplyDeleteI love the fabric on these chairs. I'm re-doing my guest room in black and white and I need to re-cover an old rocker. This fabric would be perfect. Can you share where you bought this or the name of the pattern please?
Hi Tina, thanks for joining my blog I love new followers and hope to live up to your expectation! I'd be happy to share where I got this fabric or any other questions you might have. I bought this at Joanne's it's in the canvas or outdoor section!
ReplyDeleteYou did a very nice job with those chairs, they look wonderful. Don't seem like a rookie to me! lol
ReplyDeleteMy favorite makeover you've done yet! Super impressed. I'd seriously pay a hundred a piece for those. Why can't you live closer to me?
