Facelift For a Chair





What do you do with an old world style brown frame dining chair upholstered in a gold, tapestry style fabric when you want a modern, fresh, vibrant look in your dining room and you don't want to get new chairs?






New dark chocolate wood stain
Edelman, "Dream Cow, Fudge" leather seat
Schumacher, "High Voltage, Espresso" fabric on the back
New larger nailheads for a bolder statement
Fun!!! 

One of my clients will be dining in style next week when these are delivered!



Have a vibrant weekend!
