On Saturday I finally got around to reupholstering the chairs for our dining room table. It turned out to be a lot easier than I had expected. Covering the seats with fabric was a lot like wrapping a present--which I love to do.
The only difficult part was repeatedly using the staple gun. My right hand got really sore and I developed a blister on my thumb despite taking several breaks. Even today my hand is still swollen! It was worth it, though. I couldn't be happier with the outcome!
I think they look FABULOUS. Though not so fabulous that wrecking your hand is OK...
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteLove the chairs and I feel your pain...that staple gun can be merciless. Still there is something so therapeutic about working with your hands. I love it!!!!
ReplyDeleteI had a lot of fun with this project, and I'm pretty sure that if we had other chairs sitting around in need of new seats, I'd be doing some more!
