Inspiration: Titi Abiola's Needlepointed Chairs

We're always looking for ways to transform our furniture by giving it a unique spin. We love taking old pieces and refinishing them; it's one way we can do our part to recycle, and we admire that trait in others. One example is these chairs, which we spotted at Titi Abiola's booth at ICFF...

Simple and elegant, we found the dark wood combination particularly appealing...

Those look like a really bad home ec project. I'll pass.

All I keep thinking is how those bulges would bother my behind.

I guess everyone has a right to an opinion but the other postings are completely off! Especially in the green age I think that this is the kind of project we should all be promoting. I say well done to Titi!
