Well, my 25 year-old chairs are recovered – again.
I wrote a post about them in May. I have been dying to TOSS both and get something new!
Family protests (girls want them) and a dog who fits perfectly in a little nook pushed me to do a quick update instead.
I took the skirts off the chairs and ottoman and added new wooden feet.
I restuffed all the cushions with fresh down.
Vibrant new Kravet chenille fabric should extend the life of these chairs another 4-5 years. Lucky me!
I will admit, the chairs look “fresher” and it was definitely a more reasonable alternative than buying everything new.
I am still not crazy about the scroll arms and bulky back cushions though…..
The money I saved not buying new chairs, I am planning on using towards a kitchen “reasonable redesign” that I am gearing up for in the fall! That project I am REALLY excited about.
Here is the original post about the chairs before…….

Everyone in my life knows these chairs! 🙂
Lookin great! I love that chenille! xo
Thanks Missie – will extend the life of the chairs even longer…..
They look great …maybe being “stuck” with them for a few more years won’t be so bad!
