DIY Chair Restoration


Don't throw it away! Learn the secrets to making old stuff look new again!

From Estate Sale to Gorgeous...

I purchased an old desk chair at an estate sale this past weekend for ten dollars. I was on the search for something inexpensive that I could restore and re-purpose. A good 'ol DIY project was calling my name!



The chair was in great condition and really only needed a coat of paint to give it a snappy new look! I sanded it down as best as I could, washed it clean with a damp cloth, and began painting. I chose white paint to go along with the theme of my new desk area. I applied a few coats, which dried rather quickly.

   


I'm thinking about reupholstering the cushion and have found ideas on Pinterest, but I'm not entirely sure that I'll do it. I'm kind of liking the black and white look, for now.

I'm in the process of transforming my desk area and I'll be blogging about it soon!
