Cara and I are preparing for our first big furniture sale at a community yard sale day this Saturday, so we’re busy, busy, busy finishing up some last projects and getting stuff together, but I thought I’d post the reveal of the chair and end table that I teased you with the other day. If you remember, the horrid 70’s-ness of the duo:
The disgusting “upholstery” was actually more grody on the reverse side of the “fabric.” It was covered in a brown kind of rubberish stuff that looked and felt like dirt. (…shudder…) Thankfully, it’s gone forever, and in it’s place is this cheerful and springy floral print.
Hope your Spring is off to a great start!

ReplyDeleteI am in love! Just found your blog, became a follower. I love it! I am working on a bunch of furniture re-do's and love your work! great inspiration! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteYou were so brave for taking these ugly, dated pieces on and they look fantastic. The fresh coat of white paint, bright fabric, and light distressing are just what they needed.
ReplyDeleteWOW! what a transformation! i would have walked right by this ugliness-you have great vision for outdated pieces. i am a new follower after seeing all your lovelies. ;)
