Antique Chair Update
My taste is very eclectic. There are several reasons why I can appreciate so many different styles. I inherited this antique corner chair. When I first got it, my mind went racing with different colors and upholsteries. BUT after some research, I found out that this chair may actually be worth something. I didn’t want to jeopardize its integrity by permanently altering it…just in case. I liked the chair, but I wanted to update it a little.  So when I came across Simply Spray fabric paint. I knew what to do for this antique chair update.
I used lettered stencils and numbered stickers for my design.  (By the way, the year I chose was COMPLETELY random). After ironing my fabric, I taped the lettered stencils onto the fabric with craft tape. For the numbers, I used the outline of each sticker versus the actual number for stenciling purposes.  THIS WAS THE BEST IDEA EVER! It made spray painting SO easy.
Next, I taped off the rest of the fabric that I did not want spray painted.
In a well-ventilated area I followed the directions on the Simply Spray paint can, and sprayed one coat of paint.
Next, because I was using stencils, I dabbed the top with a paper towel.
When my paint was dry, I used a staple gun to attach my newly painted fabric onto the seat. I kept the original upholstery so I did not ruin the chair. I loved how it turned out. Here are some after pictures.
I’d use it with denim somehow and upcycle an item.
I would use the blue jay and the silver glimmer for a sign to put in my garden.
I would use it on my daughter’s curtains in her room. Black and Pink
I have a bench at the foot of my bed that I like the reupholster to match our master bedroom suite. Currently it is a solid navy blue with button seams. I’m thinking it could use a little color and Simply Spray would be perfect!
Follow both pages on FB. I would love to use Simply Spray on a toddler sized bench for my daughter. I was trying to make her something her size so she can sit easier. This would be perfect and I think the uses are endless!
I’d use it on fabric boards for my girls room and maybe some pillows. There are so many possiblity my mind is going crazy! I think I would want Black.
I would do a binary code pattern on my curtains with the Olive 575!
I would like to enter this Giveaway!! I have some pillows that I would like to make new covers for and the paint will be used to create designs. The colors I would like are: green, yellow, white, black, red and blue. Is that too many? 🙂 Keeping my fingers crossed!
I would use it on burlap and make outdoor pillows for my patio in black!
I would paint the green shag carpet that is in the bedroom in the Bristol house…..
I would like bright yellow and I would use it on purple sweats to make super cute Lakers outfits:)
New fan for both sites. Unfortunately the website won’t open so I can see the color options. I’m really not sure what colors & what exactly I might do. Always good to have some handy though for when I come up with an idea. Black, Purple, Pink & White are always good colors though
I would love to try this on my love seat, chair & otterman. I want to win the cranberry, sunset gold & hunter green.
Can’t wait to try Simply Spray to decorate a blanket for Project Linus!
I’ve just discovered your blog and Simply Spray Fabric Paint. I would love to paint a foot stool if I win. This stuff looks amazing!
Wow this is amazing. I’d love to make some Christmas and Birthday gifts for my friends. I’ll probablly do pillows, a rug, and something special for my mom. My dorm room could be so colorful…. Brite Orange, Caribbean Blue, and White!
wow !!!!!!!! Love it
Thank you! 🙂
