Chair Redo

So I took a little detour to the thrift shop to see if I could find a chair to set up my sewing machine at my desk instead of the kitchen table. I found this beauty for $7.99 and when the cashier rang it up it was 50% off! I didn't quite care for the wood color and the seat with stains on it isn't quite my taste but I saw potential and for 4 bucks who could say no?
A little primer, spray paint, new cushion and fabric and viola! New chair that is super comfy and stylish too! (well, at least I think so!)
I love the way it turned out...I may sand it down a little for that shabby chic look but for right now I like it as it is!
