The Unloved Chair

My parents bought this chair at an auction for $1.00. I fell in love with it right when I saw it.

With a good washing. Some paint. And a handy husband .. take a peek at this $1.00 chair.


 A white wicker chair with a pale yellow upholstered seat.


A good washing and paint.


 Starting to look better, but we need to do something about that pale yellow! 


 We took this project on! We can do it! 
Hey, we are only professionals.


 Using upholstery tacks.


 All set up to sit in and perfect timing as well. We had a dinner party that weekend. 


I was all excited to share my story about the unloved chair.

How about you, any stories about something you gave some tender loving care?
