Chair y Tale Makeover

Once upon a time,

there were 2 very happy and loved chairs. Very stylish people in madras pants and maxi dresses loved sitting in them while listening to their Paul Anka records.
Then one day, they had no one to love them.
After many years banished to an attic, somebody found the forgetten pair and put them up for sale on Craig's List.
Because of their color, people were frightened.
And they sat, forgotten and unwanted for a very long time into the abyss ...

But then one day a lovely maiden
*** ok, no more narration ***

I thought they were pretty cool and deserved all my love.
For 100.00, I got to do just that.
The original plan was to do a re upholstery job, but when I got them in my hands, I thought, "the velvet's too perfectly beautiful ... why rip it all off just yet ?

Here's where I decided to try something a little unorthodox
( what did I have to lose ? ) ...


For the cost of two bottles of bleach, 2 cans of spray paint and a roll of c a r e f u l l y applied tape,

THIS is what happened ...

We are living SO happliy ever after !

~ the moral of this tale is ~
