new life...

I love to find old chairs that are in need of a make-over,
It's a passion of mine.

(I like to think that I'm giving them a second chance in life ;)

I have already quite many chairs and I have completed

redecorating some of them, while others

are waiting for the right moment to

get their new look!

this time I began making the textile

(for me that's the fun part ;)

I painted the chair with ( just) one layer

of white primer and then I sanded

it down again to give it a used look,

to get the patina I used two colors

of wax.

I't needed a new cover badly,

first It got some white linen,

which I stabled on, and then

I made some loose cover over

the linen so it will be easy

to use and wash !

a new life !!!

the chair before...

I'm already looking forward for the next chair make-over!!
