The chair on the left is the original upholstry that has been on these chairs for the past 5 years. I have enjoyed them until the past year. They just won't clean up nicely anymore, and no matter how much they were cleaned, professionally, and by hand, they still looked dingy. So, in an effort to save a few bucks, I thought I'd give them a new face with some new fabric. Worst case: they look horrible and I buy new ones (which I was about to do anyway). Luckily best case was my final result! I really like how they turned out, and I am pretty proud of my efforts, as I had NO idea what I was doing. I just did my usual: fake it til I make it! After I did the first one, and Ryan realized how much he liked the new, he had some sympathy for me and my cramping muscles, and he helped me do the second one! Round two was MUCH easier!
Final result! And, the beauty of it all is: it only cost me $25, so if I decide in a year or 2 or less, that I am tired of the look, I am not going to feel that bad about changing it up again!
