is finding a matching set of four chairs!
Single chairs are everywhere, but it's not so easy to find a nice set.
This set came from the same barn sale as Megan's Paris Grey Vanity/Desk you saw last time.
Don't they look nice and pretty now?
Chairs take forever to paint, so I used Behr's Ultra Premium Plus paint and primer in one in a soft green called Wasabi Powder. At least that eliminated the priming step.
The fabric was a remnant I'd picked up at another barn sale a few months ago. I was planning to make some pillows. But I love the cream and green combination and I had just enough fabric for the four chairs.
When recovering chairs, I always replace the foam and batting. It's just a good idea to start clean, fresh and cushy!
but a lovely set of four!
I think they'd look dreamy around a cream or natural wood table!
Cottage green is perfect. I love green. I like the seat covers too!
Love these pretty chairs! The fabric is lovely.
love the chairs the color looks beautiful on them!
I love your little chairs. The paint and fabric totally transform them!
Congrats on finding the set...that's way cool!!!
Great find! I am on the hunt for 6 chairs...last year I passed up a set that was only $75/set...and am still kicking myself (i was out of town at the time...but still!). LOVE that wasabi color!
Gosh, they look so much better! Thanks for linking up over at Club G.W. with Charm Bracelet Diva. Love to see you there!
SCORE! Love the quilted fabric seats! Thanks for linking to Wicked Awesome Wednesday!
Very nice... so true, a set is hard to find. These look great! Thanks for linking this post up to Share the Love Wednesday!
These turned out SO wonderful! The color you chose is awesome! Green is so soothing! Great job!
What a terrific score, Sharon! You're so right. It's hard to find that many nice chairs, at a good price, and in decent condition.
Thanks for joining the party again this week.
They look so fresh in that shade of green! They're great chairs, and good for you to find four of them!
Good job! I like the fabric you've used.
I love your chairs! And how wonderful to find FOUR!!
Love your set of chairs. I agree, a set is so much nicer. Love the green and cream. You did a very nice job with the makeover.
you did a great job! I would love them around my white table!
ok, so regarding the paint you recommend..do you have to sand?
I think the fabric is totally perfect. These will sell in a heart beat. Thank you for linking up to Open House Party. I sure do appreciate it!
I seriously LOVE these!! If I had room for them and could get them from your place to mine I would be there in a heartbeat. LOL! The fabric choice was perfect too. Thanks so much for sharing this at Inspiration Friday!
How lucky to find more than one chair! They turned out so perfect! Thanks for linking up, I love the transformation!
They look very nice! i really like the soft green color!
These chairs came out gorgeous! I love the green - very smart to use the primer and paint in one!! Can I come to the barn sales with you - you find such great stuff!! Thanks for linking up to Saturday Social!
Sheesh...I wish we had barn sales out here!
What a beautiful set of chairs! I love the carved detail on the backs. Perfect color and fabric choices (as always)!
