New Project – Two More Chairs

Standard

These chairs I bought some time ago at my hair dresser’s. They were really cheap – but there’s a lot to work on.

Today I’ve been working on my two chairs at my course, and at the moment they are resting in my car since it’s pouring outside. I’m going to do some works at home until next time. At the course today I got so inspired by one of the course participants – Linda – when she told me about making furnitures of concrete. I googled and found this nice blog

Searching for fabrics…

This is the way my Emmas looked when I got them…

Tyg måste jag också börja jaga – men det är ju mycket som ska göras på stolen innan det är dags att klä om. Jag vet på ett ungefär hur jag vill att Emma ska se utan när hon är färdigklädd. Ungefär så här:

Finally! On Saturday 22nd of September the upholstery course starts again. I just need to fix my project’s “legs”. This is my inspiration:
