Project Restyle: Funky Mod Chair Before and After

I found this mid century modern chair for $5 at a thrift store last July. The brown fabric is dingy and paint-splattered; it was begging for help! The new vibrant fabric is called Saralisa. I picked it up on my first trip to IKEA in January. (And bought some more on my second trip, I love this fabric!)

Recovering your chair cushions in new fabric is a quick and easy way to give new life to a single piece- or even a whole dining room set. Never leave a piece of furniture at the thrift store merely because you don't like the fabric or the color; it's a quick fix. This was a 10 minute restyle!

This is the first project I'm submitting to Project Re-Style (By A Beautiful Mess) Check out the Project Restyle Flickr for more inspiring thrifted before and afters to kick-start your weekend creativity.
