Sorry for the horrible lighting. We found these awesome vintage chairs on KSL (local classifieds like Craigslist). I paid $40 for the pair of them. I love the caning and the tuffed back. However rose colored velvet is not going to cut it, so we are trying our hand at reupholstering. I know everyone in the blog world has been using drop cloths for reupholstering projects since it looks a lot like linen. I was thinking about this and noticed our kitchen drapes. They are from Ikea, and are a natural color. So, I thought why not buy some more panels from Ikea and use them for our chairs. This is just what we are going to do! A tutorial and after photos to come upon completion!
