Way back in June…I bought this beauty for $6.
And then it sat, and sat, and finally it got a makeover thanks to my sweet hubby.
I still want to distress it, and touch up the legs..but for now I’m extra pleased with my thrift store chair. Plus it was a heck of a lot cheaper than these at Pottery Barn. Gotta love that!

Ooooh lovely!! My cousin just bought some thrifted chairs and we were choosing fabrics for it.
Your chair is so pretty. Way better than the PB ones!
That is so awesome! I have a rocking chair sitting out in the garage until I can think of something to do with it...now I'm inspired!
What kind of paint did you use????
Wow, Allison, I love that chair it's redo is awesome! Wahoo! (and just a little opinion here: I wouldn't distress it, the chair is more of a formal style. just my 2 cents.)
Your chair turned out beautifully!! Did you sand/strip the stain before painting? Lovely. And I love the dotty seat and the pretty pillow.
That's awesome!
Lovely! I particularly like how the white paint brought out the detail in the chair... Gorgeous. (And I'm with Di~ but it's your chair and you do have wicked vision...)
Wow! That is awesome! I seriously wish I had an eye for redoing furniture and stopped wasting so much money on pottery barn! :)
What a marvelous re-do....love white and then new fabric...great!
eek! It's adorable! Those are two of my favorite fabrics and they look great on the chair
That is a beauty and love the make over you did.
Love white it is so clean looking.
Thanks for sharing I might start on my furniture too.
I just got my April issue of Martha today and there's an article about painting and recovering chairs just like this. Wow! Just think, you are on the same wavelength as Martha and her highly paid creative staff.

Beautiful redo! So stylish, love love love it!!!! You make want to redo all my chairs!
It looks great! So much nicer than the pottery barn chairs. I love the fabrics you have chosen!
