I found this cute chair at the G-dub, just waiting for a re-do!
I primed it first....
I also found some of this Shabby Chic fabric for a dolla! (G-Dub) But I didn't really like the color of the chair....now what..
Painted it a darker gray and found some fabric I love! (JoAnn) now I didn't like the chair color again....
Ahhh.....Satin Black my favorite. I just keep going back to it. I want to like lighter colors, but they just don't do it for me. Perfect!!
Third time's a charm.

ReplyDeleteI think you made the right choice. I like the chair painted black, and that fabric is really cool.
ReplyDeleteTalk to you soon ;)

I am so impressed! I am lucky if I can get a project finished and you did it 3 times. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I think white was your thing 20 yrs ago. ;)
ReplyDeleteWhen I was painting the chair for the third time my neighbor said, "What about white?" and I said oh I've done that. You were there for it LeeLee! Miss you!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! I'm currently working on a Goodwill chair and it'll be black too. I hate to keep painting everything black, but I just love it. It's a classic!
ReplyDeleteOooh. It just got better and better. I love the fabric you ended up with and the black gives it some drama. Score!

ReplyDeleteI liked it with both the black and the dark grey!

ReplyDeletethird time is definitely the charm. good for you that you kept trying til it worked!
ReplyDeleteHA! I've done that same thing. I'd finish a project and then no sooner was the paint dry, and I'd be sanding it down again. I LOVE the 3rd makeover on the chair..definitely the right combination.

it looks great!!That's funny that you did it over again, I"m too lazy :)
ReplyDeleteI'mm with ya on the darker colors. I've been painting everything black lately. I love that fabric!! I had it in mind for my curtains in the living room - still trying to decide for sure, but it looks AMAZING on that chair!! Great jhob!
ReplyDeleteI love the back on the chair and the fabric you found. Nice job.
