Before we left Austin some family friends gave us this little kid chair. It's very cute except the fabric of course! So I decided we'd reupholster it and make it cute. The cheapest place was $125.00 plus fabric and since we are poor students once again I decided to make it my very own project and do it myself. This thing was a beast to take apart! It took me a good week just to take it apart because there were so many dang staples! I always hate the projects I start about half way through! It ended up taking me about 2 days to put it together and wha la....
a cream chenille chair with brown and green paisley fabric vs. faded denim and red that was previously on it! I wanted to do something kind of in the middle of boy-girl so if I ever have a boy it won't be all pink! Anyway, I'm satisfied with my chair and am glad I am DONE!!!! Now onto some curtains!
P.S. My mom got this little fairy dress for Addie and now that Erin got her hooked on Cinderella, all she wants to do is sing "Bipedy boppedy boo" and dance around with her wand!

Erin is such a cute aunt!! I thought that video was so darling, and hello CUTE CHAIR!!! I've never reupholstered something.. I can imagine it would be tricky though. You did a great job, and i'm loving those colors.
