Fleur Cottage: Simple Chair Change

Simple Chair Change

Want to do a simple chair change? Well, if pulling out several layers of staples is simple!! I wanted to use this chair in the gazebo for the garden tour but oh my, did it clash with the theme...never mind that I did not like it! I picked up this chair so long ago I forget where it was but I liked its bones.

I had some spare time the day before the garden tour and decided to rip off the fabric and throw some kind of cover over it. I was delighted to see this buried under that ugliness!

Isn't this a delightful surprise? I love it and for now, it's staying just like it is!

I think it looks fantastic. I have an old arm chair in the barn, it was my Grandmother's I recovered it years ago-- but now it sits up there half naked! I've been wanting to do something with it for a while-- maybe this summer she'll get a make over!
(see how I made my chair a girl?) Funny.

-- Love your's!
