I'm about to confess something that will probably shock you:
I bought fabric for the first time yesterday.
I know! Can you believe it? I went to Jo Ann Fabrics, and I wasn't even sure how to buy it (do they cut it for me?) The woman probably thought I was crazy. Ha!
{Big shout out to Miss Mustard Seed, because I first fell in love with the fabric
when I saw it on her drapes!}
Since I was feeling wild, I decided to kick it up another notch and buy a staple gun too! My husband, who has every tool known to man, told me he had one...but I'd have to wait for him to find it later.
Later?! I had a little project in mind, and obviously I needed to do it immediately.
What was this emergency which sent me to both the fabric store and the tool aisle at Target?
These chairs! I have 4 total, thanks to my former next-door neighbor. She gave them to me when she moved.
Neighbor: "Do you want the chairs?"
(simultaneously)
Husband: "No!"
Me: "Of course!"
A little fabric and some staples later, and voila!
I'll probably paint them white at some point, because we have a lot of dark wood furniture in our little house, but for now I'd say it's an improvement:

Here's a close-up of the fabric. Not bad for $12/yard!
Yeah, I should have turned the bird the other way, but I kind of like it like this:
