Graphite Chalk Paint Chair Makeover {Client Project}

Hi friends- I thought I’d give you all a break from the Christmas projects today.

I got an email a couple weeks ago from a local lady who wanted to give her teenage daughter a chair for Christmas.  (Does that technically make this a “Christmas project?”  Okay, maybe…)

She wanted something black and French themed – just my style!   😉

Since I had already depleted my huge stash of chairs, I searched high and low and thankfully found this perfect candidate for a chair makeover:

Not the greatest pic, but you get the idea – very very brown.

I removed the seat and painted all the wood in Graphite Chalk Paint, followed by Annie Sloan’s dark wax.

I used some leftover French fabric from this chair makeover and recovered the seat.

Done and done.

I hope my client’s daughter loves her new chair!

Find the tutorial for the double-sided French burlap pillow HERE.

I love the floral detail on the legs and the back of the chair.  <3

Have you had time for any furniture makeovers lately?

I’m working on one more, and hoping to have it finished before 2015 – fingers crossed!
