JUNK SHOP MAKEOVER

*A REAL PRIM VINTAGE LOOK ON A SHOWSTRING*

Whilst out doing my normal day to day shop I often pop into my local charity/junk/thrift shop to see if they have any potential goodies in.. I spotted right at the back of the shop a couple of wooden armchairs.. As we are remodelling quite a bit of my country home I thought these would be fantastic with a MAKEOVER of course in my new family sewing area (will share pics of this soon).. I made the purchase a mere £5 around $7 each and loaded them into my car...

I must admit these were very grim to the untrained eye..

Off came the brown velour seat and I got right down to painting on 2 coats of black acrylic paint..

Whilst waiting for that to dry off I hunted out one of my vintage coffee sacks to make the seat cover..

Finally I sanded back the black in places that would have shown natural wear and tear and then rubbed in some Antiquing wax and buffed...

Lastly I replaced the seat and screwed it back inplace and added one of my most favourite Cinnamon Creek Bears..MAKEOVER COMPLETE.. Now this can be placed in it's new family sewing area..It looks perfect..I still have another one to do but have different ideas for that one LOL..

I hope you liked my armchair makeover with the vintage twist..*~*Have a great week and blessings to all*~*
