Chair revamp fit for a princess

or two.

A 1970's chair and a discontinued fabric      sample book.

Remove the seat pad and unpick the staples to remove the original upholstery fabric

A padded loose cover to fit over the back of the chair.

A second loose cover made from chosen pages from the sample book

The cover should fit snugly 

over the back of the chair.

 I left the long flap to allow 

me to staple the fabric

 to the base of the chair.

staple a skirt to the base of the chair. I created a pleat at the 4 corners, re upholstered the seat pad and screwed it back on

This chair was for princess Jessie's room so I personalised it with a reverse applique cushion on pink velvet

 Two princess's in the one house meant that this was one of a pair. I went for  reds and golds to create Emma's chair

 Best part of this project was the

 reaction of my two beautiful nieces
