As the Trash to Treasure Turns...



This was one of my first DIY's. I love seeing the finished results after the blood, sweat and tears of decorating. Yard sale scouting is so fun! I bought 5 chairs at a little ole sale for $5 each. I couldn't resist!! The seller said these chairs were from the 50's and were used in his mom's kitchen.

I was SOLD. The lines and style of the chairs were ideal for my dining area. I painted them black and covered the seats.

Voila! My girl math tells me that my $35 investment ($25.oo chairs + $10 in fabric) brings me to a chic set of chairs that look $600.00. Well, maybe that's a stretch, but they make me smile!

Here's a sneak peek!
