Frugal Friday: Wingback Chair Before and After

Happy Friday All!

Today I am so happy to finally share with you the before and after of a wingback chair I had slipcovered for a friend!

We hunted for the perfect wingback with the curvy legs for a few weeks before I came across this gem at a local thrift store for $19. I knew it was perfect and would look awesome once we had it redone.
After several weeks of fabric hunting we came across a fabric and then about two weeks later this little lady was ready for her debut!

Can you even believe it's the same chair? Let alone slipcovered not reupholstered, which mind you is half the price and washable.

Here she is all styled up!

Stay tuned next week for a few more sneak peeks of this room and hopefully before too long the full review!

Head over to The Shabby Nest to see what other inspiring projects other bloggers have come up with this week!

It's Frugal Friday Again!

Hello!

Happy Friday! Today is another Frugal Friday over at the Shabby Nest. Last week my project was silhouettes of my two pooches and this week it's painting again.....kinda. This week I'm going to do a little project to showcase how a little paint can go a long way!

I purchased this chair for a client for $1 at a local thrift store. I didn't love the legs on it but I thought for a buck I would see how it turned out.

This was my first experience using Rustoleum's ultra cover spray paint and I will definitely use it again!
I sanded and cleaned the chair and then applied a few coats of spray paint. I actually only ended up needing one can of spray paint for the whole chair.

Here's a close up of the distressing.

I think for a $1 chair and a $4 can of spray paint it turned out pretty well! Oliver seems to like it! :)

What do you think?
