I actually grabbed them for free out of a neighbor's trash. hehe They are in great shape.

Did you use the fabric for anything else in the room?<br /><br />It really is amazing how much difference it can make to re-cover chairs. I'm terrible about it, though--my perfectionistic tendencies come out in full force whenever I do this. Maybe after reading this post I'll get myself together and finish re-covering the chairs at our everyday eating table. We have eight, and I've re-covered six of them. I MEANT to finish up those last two for a party in OCTOBER 2009. I'm serious. They've been sitting here wearing the old upholstery since then! They're at the end of the table, and they rarely get used, but seriously. . . how can I have let them go this long?!?Richella Parhamhttp://www.impartinggrace.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094626877865766804.post-53943675353454746562014-01-08T18:15:38.861-07:002014-01-08T18:15:38.861-07:00I absolutely love your projects..I have 2 question...I absolutely love your projects..I have 2 questions about the chairs. i currently have a few chairs in my dining room that are from the 40's or 50's.. they are in bad shape..they are currently covered in vinyl or plastic..and there is no cushion so when you sit on them they hurt and are uncomfortable..i think it's just a piece of wood covered with plastic.since i seen what you've done, it looks so easy that i can attempt to do it.i wanted to know if you had any suggestions on how i can make them feel like i am sitting on a cushioned chair..Secondly, how many yards of fabric and what type of fabric do you recommend?
