Decor

So a few weeks ago, I went fabric shopping with my mom.  I bought four fabrics, two to be used on an arm chair that she gave me that she was no longer using, and two to be used on our dinette chairs.

M & I have two dinette tables - one trestle, in a white/silver laminate with chrome, and one four legged in a yellow laminate with chrome.  We use the trestle one at our house right now - the yellow one is in storage at the condo.  We have four dinette chairs as well.  Three of them are standard chairs with a white and green vinyl covering, not in the best shape, but not too shabby.  One is an awesome arm chair, in red on the back and white/silver on the chair, also in semi-decent condition.  But it would be better if they all matched, and hey, if the seats had a bit more padding.  So there comes the fabrics.  And a little foam. :-)

Here is the before picture of one of the white/green chairs:

And here is how it looks with the new covers:

We love it.  It is a little more blue-green on the seat than it looks here, but the fabric is an awesome pairing with the tables and our living room.

One chair down, two more chair backs completed, three seats and one more chair back to go. Yay!
