Midcentury Chair Upholstered With a Shower Curtain
by
Sarah Zullo
Like any good tightwad I constantly scour Craigslist and Freecycle for deals. Sometimes I answer ads with such descriptive titles as "free chairs" and then I run off to a stranger's house unaccompanied. (smart, I know) Often I end up with the privilege of hauling their junk to the thrift store for them. But sometimes I get a feeling the stuff is going to be awesome and it is!
Here's the good stuff I scored this time: a pair of midcentury Gunlock chairs. This is the before pic.
And here's the after! I rejuvenated the wood instead of painting.
Next I used a water resistant and inexpensive shower curtain to reupholster the chair pair. Find out how in my blog post!

Really nice and I love re-using anything I can, sometimes I feel people think I am cheap but not at all on the contrary, but if I have wait to buy this or that I never finish my projects so I do what you did and also I keep these curtains to cover things up.
