Since all areas south of Buffalo are under 6+ feet of snow, I haven't been able to go to work for the past FOUR DAYS! Perfect time to work on a chair that I found in the attic. (Seriously, there's still two more dressers, another chair, and a headboard up there, besides all of the furniture that I've already taken down.)

Isn't she pretty? Lol. It looks like someone tried to make her over at least once already. They had covered up the wood back with some DIY upholstery.

I removed the seat and added a fresh layer of batting and a new mauve velvet fabric to it.

Using some of the paint I have left over from my dresser/nightstand/headboard makeover, I painted the chair a light tan.

The flat wood back was calling out for some added interest, so I chose to stencil it
with a bird motif and some white paint.

And here she is after!
