My neighbor was throwing this chair out.
I have really wanted a cozy chair, something I can turn sideways in to curl up in to read a book. So I decided to try a new craft - reupholstery. Because why not? There's not enough going on in my life yet. Let's add some more :)
I've taken it apart half way so far, the piping, the back, the sides and half of the bottom of the seat are taken off. I hit a few spots that were unexpected in their construction and I'm trying to decide if I want to copy the original technique exactly or if I can fudge a little here or there.
I want to make sure I do it properly so that it lasts. However, I don't want to bite off more than I can chew and in doing so, do subpar work. I'm taking a few days to determine what I feel like taking on. But I'm excited! It's super cozy. Can't wait!
see you soon...with something, probably
