1.) Select an area with good ventilation, away from your main living area and AWAY from pets and toddlers. I prefer to take this type of project outdoors. Trust me, you'll end up with a lot of dust, lint, threads, staples, nails and fabric pieces.

The next installment of this tutorial: Preparing the frame.
Remember the now-red metal lawn chair? I did decide to dress that middle back panel up a little. I painted some vines and roses:

Take a look at our peach tree.

Sher, thanks for the tutorial you are doing. I don't know that I'll ever reupholster a chair. My grandmother used to reupholster furniture. I don't think I ever saw the deconstruction phase. Probably she did that when she knew we weren't coming to visit.
The red chair, I think I liked it better solid red. I haven't seen it in person though, or see the flowers up close.
The tree, that must really be something to have that much fruit. Do you do canning?
Love, Janet
I'm liking that solid red more and more. The roses didn't come out as I had hoped. They may disappear by the end of today.
Yes, I do can but I like fruit better frozen. Not that I need or want a new freezer, of course. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Love,
Sher
Hi Sher! Thanks for the tutorial. I have a wing chair that I need to have upholstered and have not quite gotten the nerve to start, but you have given me a boast to give it a try.
The roses are cute on the chair, but they don't quite show up much. Maybe one big pink rose, or not. I love red anyway.
Sorry to see what happened to your peach tree.
Irma:)
Hi Sher!
Thanks so much for visiting my blog! I LOVE how your chairs turned out & how great that you've given us a tutorial - I have a little one that I've always wanted to re-do....maybe I'll give it a try!
