I have had my kitchen table and chairs for about 10 or 11 years now. I still like the set so I was trying to make it last a little longer. I was however not in LIKE of the upholstery on the chairs. After having kids the chair cushions started taking a quick turn for the worst. The fabric was way too light and every speck of dirt and spill showed up way too much!
I was shopping at Hobby Lobby several months ago, when I came across two 1 yard remnant rolls. The rolls were around $4.00 each. I looked around and found out that this material had originally been $20.00 a yard. SO, I scored this awesome fabric for $8.00 for 2 yards! That means it cost me about $2.00 a chair! Can’t beat that!
Here is one of the chairs before the redo,

WOW! Can you believe the difference that made in these chairs?!?! If you have a chair or a cushion that needs to be recovered…go ahead and give it a try! It will make you feel like you have a brand new piece of furniture!
Have a Happy Monday!
These turned out great! I love how they look with the red wall.
