Chair Mania!

Soooo I love reading blogs and I love furniture redos especially chairs! So naturally Ive been wanting to get my hands on some chairs and see what happens. Well I found two cane chairs that Ive been wanting for my house like really bad but I'm scared to mess with them just yet because although I got them for pretty cheap one was $30 and one was $40 I really didn't want to pay that much but they are really nice still and the fabric is still good on them and all that (ugh just had to put Nash in timeout cause he likes to throw stuff when he gets mad but that's a whole nother topic that I could go on and on about)back to chairs... so anyways because these certain chairs are nice and I don't want to mess them up Ive been putting off redoing them. Well lucky me on of my best friends birthdays was coming up and so was the Hwy 70 yard sale! A light bulb went off in my head! I could totally get a cheap chair and redo it and if I totally screw it up then Ill just go get her a gift card or something! Well I had a certain type of chair in mind (bad idea by the way) but I lucked out and found what I wanted but only on the second day I went to yard sales so I ended up getting 3 chairs and redoing them because I got antsy on Friday and was scared I wouldn't find what I wanted so I bought two matching chairs (that turned out AWESOME) and then I went back Saturday and ended up finding what I had in mind in the first place so I just HAD to get it too!

Ok so this is the kind of chair I wanted in the first place but didn't actually find until the second day and after I had already bought 2 other chairs because I am impatient! But oh well I still had to get it because it was only $10! Pretty ugly huh?

Now its pretty pretty huh? Hehe It did turn out pretty awesome and if I do say so myself I did pretty good at recovering it. I was nervous about doing the back of it but it actually wasn't to bad the worst part was pulling out all the staples from the previous fabric and Ill tell you a little secret I didn't pull them all out! Ooooooo I know I'm bad! Anyways I love it but I had to show it first because even though this was the kind of chair I had in mind and it turned out really good the first two I bought which I haven't shown to you yet because they ended up being totally AMAZING and I wanted to save them for last!

Ok here goes.... these are the two matching chairs I found the first day that I wasn't to sure about but got them anyways because I only paid $15 for the pair and I thought they would be fun to recover and not hard since Ive never really done any recovering before and also again because I'm impatient and was scared I wouldn't find anything else I had to snatch these up. Well as you can see they were pretty awful and dirty and totally still in the 60s.

But.... wait for it! Look what happens when you find some really cool fabric and yummy spray paint!!! Isn't just sooo cool?!

I had to show the back to cause its really cool too!

And here they are together lookin all cool and stuff! I wish I had taken better pics of them I may have to take some more seeing as they are just at my friends house and I go there all the time :)

So this is why you shouldn't go looking for something certain because even though I ended up finding the chair I had in mind I also found these other chairs that were kinda cool but I wasn't to sure about them and they ended up being the most awesome ones ever! And I was about to be a bad friend and not give them up and be selfish and keep them for myself cause they were so cool but I couldn't do that (mainly cause I have no place for them and they will look better in here house but whatev) Happy Birthday Robin!
