before + after: thrift store chair...

i love a good before + after.

so, when i spotted this already antique shabby white chair at a thrift store last week for $5, i couldn't resist.
i brought it home, and after a mere 30 minutes of cleaning and re-upolstering the cushions with some amy butler fabric i had lying around, i had a cute "new"/old chair!

super cute chair. it's amazing what a quick change of fabric can do!

Such an amazing transformation! You've inspired me to get off my butt and finally recover the old chairs I have lying around (I even have the fabric - and they've still been sitting around for months).

That is awesome! And $5?? Lucky. I'm so loving yellow these days. Must be longing for spring.

Great job!! Hey which store do you go to? I am in Utah County and I feel like I can't find any great places.
