Dena bought this chair on Facebook of all places (the Buy/Sell/Trade pages) for $40 bucks because she just couldn’t resist the shape.

Dena, you have quite the eye. Not only did you spot the sexy shape of that beat-up chair, you picked this risky fabric. Two risks that certainly paid off gloriously. Great job!

Dena says:

I removed the frame and stripped ‘er down, sewed up the new fabric using the old as a template and secured it with staples and tack strips. I sanded the rusty metal frame and then hit it with some Rusty Metal Primer Spray and followed that with a high gloss dark gray. Never letting go of this one.

Thank you Dena!
