Met Monday - Finished the dining room chairs!




First thank you for stopping by to visit. I am participating in Met Monday with the gracious Susan from Between Naps on the Porch.
I posted last week about the new to us dining room chairs. This is how they started out. My sweet husband cleaned the cushions. But still not what I wanted.

I put the cushion covers from the old chairs on them but they needed to be attached properly and straighten out. Another job poor hubby would have to do. The fabric was left over from a Christopher Lowell project we did years ago.



As usual he did a great job. You can see the Christopher Lowell project in the background.


Of course I had to give it my touch. I think it looks great!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Don't forget to stop by and see all the other creations by visiting Susan at Between Naps on the Porch.

I would love it if you would let me know you stopped in, by leaving a comment.

Ima, this ones for you.

I told a sweet friend on the bulletin boards that my precious husband bought me a dining table and chairs. She has quietly and graciously encouraged us to finish this project. Well, we recovered all the chairs in fabric we already had. You can see in the background the Christopher Lowell Project we used the fabric on originally......... Ta-da! Here is is, I think it turned out great. He really got a great deal. He used fabric we already had, and this is the result:
Thank you, Ima!

Thank you for stopping in today. I would love it if you would leave a comment letting me know what you think.
Blessed Be

My New to Me Dining Room Chairs

This is my first attempt at Met Monday with Susan at Between Naps On The Porch so make certain you check back and see all the great projects. My sweet husband found this table, chairs and bench at an estate sale recently. Upon close inspection they were a little more used than he thought. Here is one of them:

We did a major Christopher Lowell project a few years ago, using this fabric to cover some of the dining room walls. I had these cushion covers left from my previous chairs. A huge difference don't you think? When Doug gets home he will tighten the fabric for me. I think they will be great! So now I have no excuses to finish my Tablescapes.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I would love it if you would leave a comment . Please come back again.
Blessed Be!
