Another one done- CHECK!

I'm a little on the obsessed side with finishing these old projects and getting them heck out of the house. So here's one that I started as a demo project back when I taught the reupholstery class at Joann Fabrics- eons ago. Apparently my new kitty has been enjoying herself on this chair in the basement (I can tell because it's covered in grey fur!) while I walk past it at least once a week when I go in the basement. So I decided it's high time I finish the trim on this bad-boy and put 'er up for sale. So here she is. She's got chocolate brown micro-fiber on the seat and the outside of the chair and the back is upholstered in a pretty gold-toned jacquard. I thought this was a fun project because it used to be very "farm housey" because the wooden frame is very rustic-like, so I wanted to class it up a bit by putting more luxurious looking fabric on it. I think it turned out nicely! Now I just need someone else to think that same thing and buy it from me so it's no longer clogging up my basement!
