a chair makeover

It all started when I saw these chairs in the most recent Pottery Barn catalog. I have similar ones in my dining room, but wouldn't paint them. So I scoured Craigslist to find something similar.


I found these beauties for $40! With a little work they'd be perfect....


And here they are now! I used my go-to paint, Heirloom White, after a little sanding and Kilz primer and then recovered the seats with some tan fabric I found at Joann. I LOVE them.
