I found some more ugly furniture that I thought had great potential. These little end tables just needed some paint.
I forgot to take any after pictures until I already had everything placed at the antique mall. Because I'm smart like that. I really like the way they look with the cream paint though. All I did with these was a couple of good coats of spray paint.
Then there was these horribly ugly chairs. They were super cheap so I thought it was a good time to practice my upholstery skills.
Pretty hideous, right? They actually look better in the pictures than they did in real life. Yikes!
Ahhh, much better. Again, I just gave these a couple of good coats of spray paint. My sweet hubby cut new seat bottoms for me. I added new foam, batting, and fabric and ta-da.
The fabric wasn't my first choice but someone had given it to me and for my practice run, I was trying to keep the cost down. All in all, I guess they didn't turn out too bad.
