2 lost and lonely chairs painted gold in the 1970's was right up my alley. Amy had already done the hard work too and stripped the old fabric off (Isn't she the best????).. So a clean coat of white paint and a little decoupage...
Each one got it's own bit of a butterfly print and a reupholster.
Which reminds me..As you may know, I have a passion for botanical and insect prints. It's one of my art mediums.... so if you are like me...Shhh..here's a little secret.
If you completely LOVE these prints from Ballard designs, but they are way out of your price range...:) Jen

Fabulous chairs! I actually thought of you (for REAL!) when I bought my gossip bench. Oh...the things you could do with it! :-) I remember you had one (last year?) that I was swooning over.
