Sexy Leg Chair

Here's that fantastic chair again....It's so gorgeous....just dreamy for a mere $6.99.



Does anyone get sick of seeing chair refabs? I don't...I love them!

There was only one problem with this chair....
 Eh...That sucks.

So here's what I did:




I mean, I'm not sure people are going to really sit for long in this chair, but it helps to make it feel like someone's tush isn't going to fall through....

A little scrap fuzz...



And then here's where that gorgeous fabric that makes me think of my Norwegian ancestry comes in....


Staple....this was super easy because I just followed along with the outline that was there from the cane.


Trim edges:

Add pretty white trim:


And done.


I can't stand how perfect it is. It is just so pretty. I just love it.

  2. Great idea, love the wood tone too. Other than the seat it was in great shape! Our goodwill would have charged more for that.

  6. Super duper cute! I have two free chairs that I am gonna remake one of these days too...don't know what to do with them though...they are similar to yours but without the cane seat. Any ideas?

  10. I love all of your chairs. I want to "try" to redo a chair. I was wondering what type of staple gun do you use on your chair projects?
