Just give me a staple gun...

...and I'll take over the world. I took my first steps into upholstery the last few weeks. A friend is redoing her apt and wanted to recover some $20 Craigslist chairs. Never one to back down from a challenge, I helped her out. The first chair took about three hours, the second one only about an hour and a half start to finish. Below are the pictures. I'm super excited about how they turned out. It makes me want to scour Craigslist, find old chairs and recover them and re-sell them. However, these were pretty straight forward and pretty easy. I might not be so lucky next time! And hopefully within a week or so I'll have a new project to post. A friend wants to paint tshirts ala I Love Johnny and I'm all for it. If it works out I'll post some pics!





After and Before.

Second chair done! Can't wait to see her whole place come together!
