I’m so excited to share this post with you! I was driving to my daughter’s home one afternoon when I saw this chair in front of her neighbor’s house. The chair was not the prettiest chair, but it looked sturdy. I just had to stop and pick it up.
Here is the chair as it was when I picked it up.
I painted the chair Dove White from Benjamin Moore, Advance paint. I am really happy with this paint. It goes on with a lot of brush strokes and it scares you on how it looks while you are painting it on. After it dries, it smooths out nicely. The best part? I simply did two coats–no polyurethane needed! I did prime the chair first.
After I painted the chair, I cut the material for upholstery.
Finally after the painting was done and the material was all sewn, I placed my upholstery foam, covered and stapled the seat in a layer of batting, then finished with my fabric. Sorry, I lost the pictures of this part! I’m really kicking myself! I painted the chair rollers a bronze color. So glad that I did.
Here is the finish chair. I placed it in a corner of my family room with an arm knitted throw I made.
I’m loving the chair in the room. What do you think? Leave me a comment.
Thank you for stopping by.
Stay strong and stay blessed!

Decorating our home on a budget is my thrill. I think a home can look beautiful without breaking the bank. Your home should bring the best out of you and make you feel happy. You should smile every time you enter your home. 🙂
Did you make your pink chunky throw? If so, how much did the yarn cost?
Yes I did. I armed knitted it.
