For $1.00 at a garage sale, I couldn't pass up this chair.
Even if it had 5 cocoons attached to the underside.
Armed with my tools, I got to work.
When I took all the upholstery off the bottom cushion, I found this tag. It references dates from the 1920s, but that's all I know.

ReplyDeleteWe appreciate the feedback! Thanks!
What a great deal and a beautiful transformation! Very sophisticated in black!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I just picked up a set of 4 chairs that I am contemplating painting black. Can you tell me what you used the Kilz primer for? Is that necessary? Also, did you sand the chair first at all? Thanks!
