Today Biscuit and I made a royal throne.
You're right. It doesn't match. But I was collaborating with a three year old and trying to spend less than $3.
Yesterday, on the way home from the farmers' market I was wishing I could find a cheap armchair to paint gold and reupholster. I stopped at one garage sale and found this for $2! Fate.
I was going to paint it gold but we already had metallic silver so there you go. The maroon upholstery was in the craft room and the fish bead "jewels" were found today for 50c at another garage sale. Yay for cheap/easy projects. We'll use the throne for photos at the royal birthday party.
Reupholstering the seat was so easy I decided to do all my dining room chairs. I'm an idiot. It's going a bit slow due to simultaneous Emmy watching, pudding making and blog reading. LOVE this new-to-me craft blog, Matsutake and check out these incredible Maisie softies at Ikat Bag.
