Not a super pretty sight, but there is potential!!
He stapled while i tugged on the fabric. We started by getting the middle of each side.
We did it in a pattern of north, south, east, west. Then tackled the corners. Those were a bit more tricky, but we did it. Not the most smooth or fancy looking- but hey! This was my first time! :)
Not too bad, eh?
Next I got to work on the back rest if the chairs. I saw a bit of vinyl fabric peaking through the gold.
Here is a little good news, bad news. Which do you want first?
Well, you actually don't have a choice, haha :)
Good news: So I cut the gold fabric away to find this gorgeous retro fabric underneath! Score!mi wasn't worried about the yellowing because the sun can bleach that out in a hot minute. .....
Bad news: I left these chairs outside for too long, so the whole inside is molded. I can't salvage the pretty fabric :(
So that's as far as I've gotten on these chairs so far. I'm not quite sure how to replace the fabric on the top with the green fabric I have. Any tips? But I'm sure I'll figure something out :)
Moral of the story: don't procrastinate and leave your pretty chairs out in the elements for 6 or so months.... :)
