I have this velvet chair and I'm considering painting it. I will recover the cushion but considering painting the rest. I'm hesitant as I don't want to ruin the chair completely. I'm trying to avoid having to redo the entire chair as its a daunting task. Doable but it is time and labor intensive.
Thanks in advance.
