Hi Hometalk
I love what u guys are doing and all the diy's that u show are pretty amazing and easy to follow. So I have a diy question for u guys. I have these 2 chairs (have included a picture too.) of which i dont like the fabric of. I just want to change it or do something that its not visible. Please send me suggestions.
Thanks.
If you just want to change the look and not the fabric itself, you can actually paint it!

DIY Wing Back Chair Reupholster!
This is a very easy chair to slip cover!
Find a fabric that you love and goes with colors that go well in the room. Slipcover or reupholster depending on what you feel comfortable doing. Honestly, sometimes tucking and pinning fabric changes the whole look without committing.
I've not tried to use the new paints for fabric, but historically they tend to make the fabric more stiff. Is the chair comfortable? I would go with a slip cover if you want to change the look and comfort of the fabric.
cki would make a slipcover for the cushion then make a pillow to match for the back.
