This chair with a gold cushion was found at a garage sale for $5. It was probably beautiful in the late 70's/early 80's and the "bones" were still good. It just needed a little makeover...
This chair goes perfectly in my dining room. I found the fabric at Walmart (yes, Walmart) and when I saw it I knew it would be perfect for this project. Oh, at $3.77 a yard, I found it even more appealing. With a little primer and satin spray paint this is what I've got now...
Another view...
Here's the spending breakdown:
garage sale chair...$5
black spray paint...$3.40 (used leftover gray primer)
material...$4.00
Total investment=$12.40
Next up...my outside swing. I'm thinking RED!
