After a few hours of work on my dining chairs they have a fresh face....It took the better part of the day to cut fabric and to staple it on to the frames. I used some batting to give a bit more support to the seat and now they are done! Strict orders have been given to mind the 'new' chairs, since they will be used at every meal...
And the bench had been done yesterday by me, trying out my skills and being quite happy with the results...
Now all I need is a manicure...

Well done! Suddenly your chairs have a nice new life ready for lots of living.
ReplyDeleteI can see that you must be very proud of your efforts. Celebrate with a special meal, break bread, and enjoy christening those new cushions, just no spills, right!
