    I renovated four very same chairs and I painted them in white shabby shic style ( my favorite style and color ), and all my furnitures in my apartmen in same style and color, too.
    One front leg on the one of the chairs was broken, and my wife though tha it can't be solved any more, but I renovated it and now anybody can't gess what leg it was.
    Your video is great and it shows that old things don't have to goes in to the trash, everything can be renovated in style what somebody love. My neighbours discarded many pieces of furniture that I took, renovated or repurposed into something else and gave them a new life. I showed them what I did with them and they were all delighted with what they saw.
    And I must to say, I'm an amateur, not professional, but I love make some new things from old and discarted pieces.

    I'm really glad to see this tutorial! My mom has some dining room chairs similar to this one, but with a wicker backing. My nephew poked a few holes in one of the chairs and little by little my son got to it as well, and now the chair is wrecked! I've been thinking of changing the wicker out to apholstry fabric, and this gave me the idea on how to change it out. Thank you for your time and filming your masterpiece! It turned out gorgeous 😍!

  • @maureenamos5240
    @maureenamos5240 3 года назад

    Hi Charlie from down under. You've made one of the best videos I've watched (and I watched many tutorials!). I've only made this comment on 2 others. You are a very good teacher. Going slow enough on each section to show exactly how it's done but not making us watch while you complete that whole piece. eg. You start your stapling then jump to the finish. I have 6 chairs similar to yours I've been putting off. I know have the confidence to reupholster them now, when before I was only going to chalk paint the whole chair. I'm 67yo and can sew but it appears that there is no sewing required! Great job on the video and the chair and thank you. (you might just want to turn the music down a fraction as you have a lovely calming voice)

    It turned out beautifully. I think I might do something similar in the future. :)
    I did make a whole upholstery book "Upholstering Methods" by "Zimmerman". Everything you did is described, but seeing it done, it gives a better look at how its done.
    Thank you!

    I hit subscribe when you lined the webbing with the stripes, well done. I love the attention to detail and the care you take to keep your lungs safe from the foam dust chemicals. Using embroidery scissors and cutting the back edge that way was very insightful. Loved everything but the background music 😩, however I recognize it was your first video 👍 and look forward to the next one. What kind of pneumatic staple gun is that?
