Pair of New Chairs ~ Slipcovered

BEFORE~ These matching chairs are remnants from the early eighties. I have cut out the attached back cushions and removed the seat cushions for recovering in new clean material. I cut off the original box pleated skirt as well, so these are the bodies of the chairs bar bones.
AFTER - We have less than $40 in material because the Murries chose an inexpensive duck cloth that is fully washable and dog friendly. Now the chairs look fresh and new for their new home in East Nashville with gorgeous hardwood floors!
What a transformation! Who knew hand-me-down furniture could look so good? These slipcovers have no cording or skirts so they were extremly affordable to make as well. $90 a piece plus the cost of material.
