I was putting away my very ugly but perfectly functional folding chairs after having a houseful of ladies in for a brunch. The seat popped off as I was struggling to fold one and I thought "Well by George, I'm not putting this thing back on until I recover it. These things are getting overhauled. Pronto!
I used one of my vinyl tableclothes that I bought in Texas. They were such a steal that I risked my luggage being overweight when I flew home.
I get in a hurry I guess.
This is what always seems to happen when I spray paint....
I'm not sure if the spray paint is as durable as the can makes it sound, but anything is better than what it was before! A few scratches in some blue paint will be an improvement over "ick".
We just redid a bunch of little Sunday school chairs in multicolor paints and alternating prints. Almost done and they are coming out really cute! Yours came out well and so pretty1
ReplyDeleteI like your idea to use the tablecloth to cover them,love how they turned out!
ReplyDeleteSame here on the spray drips....and i totally blame the spray paint, never myself! :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Very fortunate that your seat came off...
ReplyDeleteI love them! But how did you apply the fabric? I have some just like them and I'd like to do the same. Thanks! Visiting from Funky Junky party.
ReplyDeleteI love these little chairs! You did a great job

This is a great project! I love that you used table cloths so they are easy to clean. They look so updated in the end. We'd love for you to come over and share tomorrow morning at The Makers at TinySidekick.com. Hope to see you there :)

Your chairs looks so fantastic. I love the update. I actually have four old folding chairs in the garage right now waiting for me to do a similar treatment to them.. Do you think will ever get around to it? Yours look fab!
ReplyDeleteHave a very terrific week!! :)

What a great idea, these look so fun and modern.
ReplyDeleteThese look adorable and the tablecloths are a brilliant idea. I get the same thing with spray paint - I put it on too thick because I'm excited to get it done.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, who would have thought these could look so good. Please come and share at Link It Or Lump it if you have not already! http://www.sohosonnet.com/link-it-or-lump-it/link-it-or-lump-it-sunday-link-party-31/

ReplyDeleteLove these chairs! I love that you used table clothes for the seat. Inexpensive and you can wipe it off! Thank you for sharing at The Creative Exchange party!
ReplyDeleteUsing a vinyl tablecloth for the chair fabric is genius! I am planning on recovering my kids little table and that would be a perfect solution. Thanks again for linking up to The Creative Exchange!
