I have been thinking about up-cycling this chair for about a month! I bought it at the thrift store for $5.00. I stripped it down and let it sit there until I figured out what I wanted to do with it. Then I went shopping and found some really pretty napkins and decided to try to decoupage them onto the wood chair. (I pinned something similar on Pinterest). After the decoupage dried over night I sanded it down, especially around the edges. Last but not least I rubbed a dark wax paste over the entire chair. Isn't it amazing how much you can change an object with a little TLC!

Thank you! I'm going to try the same process with a tin cake pan lid!
