Reupholstering - Part 2
So... previously, I showed you my great grandmother's lovely chair and this suppppper pretty fabric that I picked out to reupholster it with. I'm still totally in love with it!!!
I'm totally excited with how it turned out as well!
Dad found a great deal on a power electric stapler, because there is no way that I would have had enough pressure to squeeze the trigger on a staple gun enough times to get this chair done.
So yayyy thank you dad for picking it up on kijiji!
-le gasp- so pretty even in this messy state!
The back is done, as are the arms in this shot.
Just working on the corners and making sure i get the cuts and tucks done properly.
The finished product!!!
Now i'm not a fan of the work that goes into reupholstering, I definitely couldn't do it day in and day out for a living, so kudo's to those who do as a profession!
But I am rather proud of the way this turned out. I would definitely reupholster other furniture in the future if it's going to save me an arm and a leg in cost!
Let me know what you think!
