I got this chair for free on the side of the road. The most labor intensive part of the makeover was scraping and sanding off the old finish, which had become beaded on the surface. Then i painted it and gave it 3 coats of clear lacquer.

I bought this chair at a thrift store for $2.50. I removed the old caning on the seat, which had torn. I cut along the groove where the caning had been attached with a jigsaw. I spraypainted the wooden pieces bright red. I upholstered the inside part of the seat and screwed it back together.

I had an Ikea Tullsta chair that was missing it's slipcover and legs. Instead of buying a new slipcover, I made one out of Ikea fabric and I replaced the legs with Capita legs also from Ikea. Read the whole how-to on my blog: http://www.thebargainlife.com/?p=69

This is a picture of Martin the rooster's beloved chair collection.

He's the kind of guy who can't drive past a chair on the side of the road without taking it home and fixing it up; well, sometimes fixing it up, a lot of the time they just get added to the ever growing brokeny tree forest in the garage.

Miriam the hen finds this all very vexing.

My new living room chairs. This is part of a set of his and her chairs. This is the papa chair. I don't know the exact date, but I think that they're either Edwardian or 1930s chairs. The arms are deeply carved and have cane sides. The upholstery is deep cut velvet and a bit dirty. I'd like to clean the fabric, but am not sure how to do it.

The arms are deeply carved and have cane sides. There is a bit of carving toward the top of the chair of stylized roses. The upholstery is deep cut velvet and a bit dirty.
