a sneak peak of sorts

Remember THIS?

I had dug her out of an closing down upholstery store's trash pile.
The owner didn't want to spend the $$$ to get it fixed up.

At first I was all "I can do this!"
I even bought a staple gun and borrowed an air compressor.


UH NO.
Way way way over my head.
And so she sat in the corner piled deep in all that gathers in my bedroom.

Then my birthday came and Hubby said to get it done professionally!
GLEE!
I love that man!
I grabbed some stain and did the prettied wood up real nice
(hey it was another $200 saved DIY'ing it!)


3 months later she still sat in the corner.
Neglected.
Sad.

WELL NO MORE!

No one puts Baby in the corner!
She got a little structural reconstruction to stablize her back
some charcoal suede fabric
satin poly on the wood


She is still at the "spa" getting made over.
We are waiting on her BLING to come in and be installed...
PEWTER NAILHEAD TRIM!
POW!

She'll come home Friday or Saturday!


I've linked to some parties I'm sharing this make over with over there----->

  1. I'm envious - I have a chair that looks identical to yours and in the same condition, but I don't know if I'll ever get it reupholstered. Your's looks beautiful now!
