Not Done This Before

Got an old chair that has had some of the newness worn off it.



Took me tools to it...

 

You've made a good job of that Zigs.

 

good job Zigs.

 

that looks fab now Zigs.

 

Looks like it's good enough to sit on

 

Nice work @Zigs

 

I once saved a good steel chair from someones trash and did it up. Called it my Alice in Wonderland chair. you can see it here, part of it anyway, used lots of colors. its still in use, the arms need re-sanding and a new coat. its pretty comfy also.

 

Very nice work @Zigs - you could pick up extra money doing jobs like that. Restoring antique chairs. Maybe add a before and after to your website?

 

Ta all

Certainly would do more if I had the chance, need some more house clearances

 

There might be people with chairs that they don't want to part with, recovered. You wouldn't even need to lay out any cash. Just take the chair and their fabric away, redo and return and hold out your hand for the money

 

It certainly looks it!!!

 

Make a change, taking something back

 

Nice Zigs. When I was on the IoW I renovated 4 1940s chairs Was pleased with them. Also did an antique dressing screen, have that here.

 

And being paid for taking it back!
