2 mid-century solid wood chairs - retrieved from outside a local karate studio ! Will look AWESOME when re-covered...

Wow someone just tossed those out what a waste good for you they look really solid and sturdy. Be sure to show us when you recover them. Good find for sure.

It'll be a while, but "afters" will be posted; for the moment, they are stuck in the messy basement, I think they are project # 383 on the list!

Great find. You could always pull a Hildi and just grab some paint. She seemed to think that worked just great for a fast reupholster.

Where, Oh where is that hair-pulling icon when you need it - oh, well, maybe this one will work :

I remembered late last night that I have the drapes from the old house (that won't fit anything in this house) and I am going to use them . . stay tuned !

Well, finally, here they are all done. Just gave them a quick sand and a quick coat of Varthane. I could not get the cushions of the backs detached, so they are a mic of slipcover and re-upholstered! But I think they look good, considering the biggest expense was the staples that were used.
