old and improved
Project complete! I was so excited yesterday to meet Carrie of Sommer Designs and pick up the fabric for my chairs. I quickly (okay, really more like 8 hours later after Toddler L went to bed) got to work taking off the old fabric and replacing it with my stain-free beautiful new fabric. What do you think?
And by the way, the old fabric was this awesome white (well, it was when it was new) ultra-suede so I just couldn’t throw it out. I cut it up to make washable swiffer cloths and some rags. We’ll see how they work but first I have to wash off all the finger prints and peanut butter.

So cute! I love this fabric and the color. Did you have to barter for it?

Jamie, I didn’t have to barter for this fabric as it was unused remnants from a local artist. Taking her scrap material is it’s own form of recycling in my opinion!

Thanks Carrie. I think this fabric is great and has much potential should I decide to repaint the chairs in the future.
And Thanks Emma James, I am inspired to do more!
