Reupholstered Chair Big Reveal!!!

Posted by Designed by Chance

Remember that little ottoman I did? Well, now the whole chair is done.

Before

After

It's white!!! **white pleather that is (you know fake leather)** I know, I make everything white. What to do. I want to lighten things. White was once my favorite color (because it was all colors, that's a seven year old mind at work there).

I like how the chair came out don't you?

I made it the same way I made the others. It was quite simple (besides the buttons, I hate the buttons).



I really think it brightens up the whole corner (bad lighting aside, it was cloudy today). I can't wait to finish the headboard, then you can see the whole room reveal. It will be great.

What is your take on reupholstering? Love it, hate it? I want to know.

    I had to zip on over because it's an Eames Chair. I know many say you shouldn't rework an original but if the seat is torn like yours, what are you supposed to do, leave it tatty? I don't think so.
