Chair ReDo






So, I bought this chair ($12) for my vanity (that my mom gave to me for free THANK YOU, MOM) and it was too old fashioned for me, so I refinished it! It was already a re-do, I guess because instead of a chair cushion there was a pillow in it. Lucky for me, the pillow was exactly the color of my glider in the nursery, so I reused that (after washing it), and bought a foam pad for $4 with a 50% off coupon. I also found some great fabric in the remnants section for 50% off.
I have this SWEET staple gun that I had yet to use, so I used that to staple my new fabric on adding about 50 unnecessary staples I'm sure.
It was really easy to do, just a little time consuming waiting for the paint to dry and waiting for the kids to nap to get the other stuff done, but I'm really pleased with the outcome. Now I have a vanity and chair for about $20!!
