Hipster Chairs



Check out my retro lookin, 1970's feelin, hipster chairs.



Each chair was $2.99 and they looked lovely in the torn blue vinyl they were sportin before I went to town them.



I painted them both black and then distressed them a bit.



I stenciled both of the back rests.



I found some super fun 70's ish fabric to recover the seats with. 



And I used a braided brown trim to finish them off.



They kinda make me giggle.

    I love all the things you do with furniture. Re-purposing furniture is one of my favorite things to do and you are doing it so creatively! Glad I found your site.
