Grandma's chair


Was re-arranging a room to make room for a vanity and chair from my husband's  grandmother.  The more I looked at the chair the more I knew I had to stop and re-upholster the chair.  Since it is only about a 10 min. thing to do I stopped immediately  picked fabric from my stash and did it.  The old fabric was washed out, stained,frayed looking, and not a color that is in my house any where.  I like reds and have lots of red in my house so it was easy to decide what color it would be.  Because I like reds I already have lots of fabric in the house in colors I like that work in my home.  I took off the old blue fabric and tossed it in the trash.  I saved the nails to save myself a trip to the hardware store and it is done.  I may go back and put a cording on it later it does not need it but it would look more finished to me.
Sorry the photos are not better I took them with my phone and it has no flash so yep bad photos.  But since I was not planning on a post that is how it goes.  I was just going to show family on facebook.

I hope all of you are enjoying your summers with your family I have had lots of time with my family this summer and will be back to posting more in the near future.  I have traveled too much this summer and I need a vacation from summer.  So once school is back in session I will have it.
