Wicker Chair: Before & After
A friend asked me to redo her chair. She is a photographer and wanted it for a photo prop.
It was looking photo worthy...thats for sure. I had to take out about a MILLION staples.
I guess whoever originally made the chair wanted it red forever!
I few coats of high gloss spray paint it it looked fantastic.
I bought the 3/8 button kits at hobby lobby. I covered them with my black satin, by following the package directions. I made my own ruffle and piping from the black satin. I bought the gold decorative nails at Lowes. I just hammered them into place over my ruffles edge. It took me over an hour.
I love it!! I love the little ruffles you added! It looks so much better now!
