Welcome to day THREE of Chair Week here at 551 East!
For those of you who are just joining the party I took on a massive reupholstering project of reupholstering 4 chairs in 7 weeks.
So far I've showed you the Ikat French Provincial arm chair and a Retro Burlap arm chair.
Today I am showing you probably my favorite chair and I'm thrilled to be sharing it over at Chi Chi Studios!
You'll have to head over to her place for all the pictures and tutorials, but I'll leave with with a sneak peak. :)
