The Fabulous Sun Room Chair
I'm so impressed with this chair. I had bought it awhile back and had been slowly working on it. I totally revamped this one. First I stripped it down, meaning, I took off the fabric, the underlying springs and webbing, etc. and even stripped off the dark varnish/stain/paint(?) from the wood. I replaced the varnish/stain/paint(?) with a few coats of tung oil, which really brought out the beauty of the wood. Then I rewebbed the frame. Then I put a thick cushion on it (which needed me to scour the middle where the chair bent from back to seat). Then I was on a mission to find the best fabric. Of course I could never find THE fabric to use, so I now have several bolts of really upholstery fabric in the sewing room waiting for a new project to begin so they can be used. Finally I found the fabric that fit the chair best. And from there, the rest is history. I'm SO impressed with the way it turned out. Not only am I proud of the fact that it is really pretty but I'm also really proud that there really aren't any areas of it that I'm embarrased by or not perfectly happy with. AND...Mr. Fabrics can be happy now because it's another unfinished project that is now FINISHED!
