A Quick DIY

So I shared about our new dining room table {love!}... and mentioned that I was planning to recover the chair seats. Well, I had no idea just how easy this project would be! I started out by looking for fabric at JoAnns... but had no luck there. I knew that I could order fabric... but was feeling impatient, ha! Then... I was in West Elm {love that store!!} and I found these adorable cloth napkins. And guess what... they were the exact size that I needed for each chair seat! So I bought six napkins {on sale for $4 each} and got to work. The best part was that I didn't have to cut or measure any fabric... so easy. I used a staple gun to attach the fabric to the bottom of each seat. {I didn't remove the original fabric or add more foam... they were still in great condition. I just used a screw driver to take each seat off} Seriously easiest update ever. Only took about an hour for all 6 chairs!! Here's the finished project...

Love the chevron fabric. So smart to use napkins...no cutting or hemming.
