Well, at least I started...

First off, it was a great day for a visit from the tooth fairy. Miss Ella lost her first front tooth and the tooth fairy left her $1. She was so excited to go to school and show her friends!

Yesterday I decided to start the computer chair cover. It has a bottom cushion and then a removable cushion on top of that. I need my mom's help with the top cushion but the bottom required the fabric to just be stapled on. That is something I could do! First I gathered my supplies....

Oh, oops. The cake isn't essential to the recovering process but it makes it more fun! Here are my real supplies....

The old fabric on it was interesting. I'm using a chocolate brown polka dot for this part.

Here is where the glue gun came in handy. It was a bit tricky to go around the wood for the arms. I had to cut a small piece of fabric and fold it over. Then I glued it around the wood and stapled it to the bottom of the chair. At that point, I was able to cut the fabric and fold it without worrying about it going all the way around. I think it worked pretty well. I wish I took pictures of the whole process but I was just trying to get it done.


Here it is all done. It isn't perfect but it'll do. I can't wait to see how it looks once my mom and I get the top cushion recovered. This chair was a $5 yard sale find and it's fun to give it a new life.
