In the great stash of awesomeness that my mom brought over the other day was this chair.
The metal is rusted, the red is HORRIBLE, the chair is ugly... and I LOVE it.
I am pretty sure it used to be in a crappy hamburger joint or retro breakfast place. The rust was perfect, the red vinyl was NOT. So I decided to cover it in this sweet burlap my mom brought me.
Hint: You can get these cool burlap bags at Murdochs... they are practically GIVING them away!
Covering a circle is much harder then a square it turns out... but I fought through it and got this amazing result. I love it!
So much better then the old red vinyl, right?! Now it is rusty and rustic:)
Looks great! We had very similar chairs in our first condo kitchen, only with metal seats. Love the shape.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so cool! I liked the color of the original red seat, but vinyl is so icky.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely way better. I wish I knew where to find burlap sacks for cheap, we definitely don't have one of those stores near us!
ReplyDeleteYou are so creative. I never cease to be amazed! Gotta run. Still tax season.
ReplyDeleteLove the choice of burlap!!! Great job and what a cool chair
