After feeling sick this week, I decided to take it a bit easy on the weekend. I did get some stuff done, though! I was able to work on reupholstering a chair that I have had for a long time, that needed a little face lift. I am still in the process of decorating our new place, and the colors in this fabric go much better with the other furniture in the room (the chair used to be red). This project is going much more smoothly than the sofa I recovered this summer…it is much smaller and much less complicated! As you can see, I have yet to sew all the pieces together, but my guess is that it will take very little time to finish this up.
What did you do this weekend…did you enjoy any Halloween festivities? Are you happy to be done with October and on to November?
im ready for nov & thanksgiving!!! can’t wait to see the chair : )
The chair is looking great! Hope you feel better soon :(
I can’t wait to see the finished chair! Your sofa looked stunning. I have tried re-upholstering, but suck at it. Maybe I am too impatient, not sure. I have a cane patio set that desperately needs new cushions, but I have been reluctant to try my hand at this…
Halloween is not really a holiday that is celebrated in South Africa. When my kids were small, a local Mall started having an annual event on Halloween with all the stores open and giving away treats to the kids. It was such fun taking the kids. Now they are bigger they dont “do” that anymore. Not with their parents it seems. Last weekend both boys went to the same event and met some friends there. No dressing-up though. Must look cool, not like a clown!
Hope you feel better soon!
[...] used the rest of this week to finish up that upholstered chair I was working on over the weekend, and it looks amazing! I love the fabric, and it goes so much [...]
