Theater Seats

9/22/2015

I bought these theater seats in March.  They are heavy and they take up a lot of room.  I had them outside while I painted them and then rolled them into my laundry room to store until I finished working on them.  My mister told me many times that he would pay me to throw them away.  I just couldn't do it!  I kept trying to figure out what color I wanted to reupholster them and how to go about doing it.  Well, my husband went hunting this weekend so I thought it was the perfect time to pull them out and get them done.  I purchased a velvet green material to recover them.  I got the backs off and was able to complete the back sides on Friday night.  I had no idea how to take the bottoms off to reupholster them and so I left them alone until Sunday.  Well, the job needed to get done, so I got back to work Sunday.  This was not easy!  I had to hand stitch almost all of the seat bottoms.  Where there's a will, there's a way!  All I have to do now it take the funky carpet off the bottoms when I get ready to sell them.
