Trash to Treasure Tuesday...

I've been wanting to share this "trash to treasure" for a while now... but never take the time to do it. So today... I'm jumping in to this new "realm" of fun!

We found two of these chairs in the trash - literally. Dragged them home. Looked at their ugliness for FAR too long before FINALLY being inspired to try something.


After sanding, priming, spray painting (my NEW bff!!), and picking out some cute fabric... here is the finished product...

Not super exciting... but a HUGE difference. Now I'm not totally embarrassed to have these in our house. :) I just need to find a few more chairs so I can have a full set....
