Face lift for the chairs

Those 2 porch chairs were lacking some pizazz- I decided to change that. I reused the foam from the old cushions, changed the shape of them to fit the chairs better, and just reupholstered them with new fabric. It took me a few hours but I think it was worth the effort. Somehow the same chairs look more inviting now, wouldn't you agree?

Nice work! How difficult was the reupholstering? There's a few chairs that I will need to do something similar to, but I've never actually done it before...

It took me a day of work,and because I don't have the sophisticated sewing machine, just a few stitches were done by the machine to sew on the ribbon- the rest was a tedious hand stitching.
