A “Shabby Chic” Chair for Ainsley
Remember Ainsley’s “shabby chic” big girl room?? (click HERE for pictures) Well, it is still very much a work in progress, but I finally redid a chair for her! The weather has been beautiful lately, so I took advantage of it and busted out the spray paint, a staple gun, and some gorgeous Amy Butler fabric:)
Several months ago, I had purchased an old chair at the local thrift store for a few bucks. I could tell it had great bones, but really really ugly golden velvet cushions. Gah.
Nothing a little spray paint and fabric can’t fix! Because of the open mesh-like back on the chair, it actually took 2 cans of spray paint to get full coverage.
Isn’t it cute??
I happened to already have this lovely Amy Butler home decor fabric in my collection and the colors are going to be perfect in Ainsley’s room. I removed the ugly golden velvet fabric from the seat and staple gunned the new fabric to it. Then, I sewed a basic envelope style pillow for the back. Easy peasy!
Ainsley already told me she loves it and I will get pictures of it in her room soon!
