This will be the fourth place that Jon and I will have lived since we got married. Before each of our previous  moves I painted and recovered furniture and made pillows and did as much work ahead of time as I could, so that when we moved in I would have a head start on each room. This move I hoped to do that as well, but I quickly discovered that with two helpers just packing alone was going to be quite an accomplishment to have done in time! So, I gave up on my grand plans of stripping and repainting multiple dressers and other furniture pieces and making new bedding for Lillie and Lola's new room and just went with the two easiest projects on my list  - quickly repainting the porch chairs and then sprucing up the two french chairs in our dining room. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now, if you are wondering why I would bother to redo the french chairs let me show you. About a month or two ago we decided to let Lola start sitting in a chair without her highchair in the set. When we removed the high chair seat part from the french chair we discovered lots of things had been dripping down through her seat and all these lovely stains greeted us:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3zcgF1HqLKmGyW5Shm5ib9JjNLK1mRu7qvniawjwLRl8m3nr9DBXhFAPpLBcPi9aNtZ_H_1TDfzttQDqW3nkz1Lm5whytRkXIJzyWeMSxV3SUcBMmh5v6y5CUwemqfq3TMGvT9VQxRHHF/s1600/TIMG_3364.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3zcgF1HqLKmGyW5Shm5ib9JjNLK1mRu7qvniawjwLRl8m3nr9DBXhFAPpLBcPi9aNtZ_H_1TDfzttQDqW3nkz1Lm5whytRkXIJzyWeMSxV3SUcBMmh5v6y5CUwemqfq3TMGvT9VQxRHHF/s640/TIMG_3364.png" width="435" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />The first thing I did was remove the seat. This one actually doesn't have any screws so you just pull it out. It does take a good bit of wiggling though seeing how it fits in there very tightly. Our new house is quite dark so I am planning on really lightening it up as soon as we move in by painting all of the walls and trimwork. I am going to do lots of white and grays and so am trying to get away from some of creams and browns we have now. On some of our pieces this won't be possible but I'd like to lighten up as many as I am able to. For these chairs as well as the dining chairs on our porch I painted over the creamy color with Dove White by Benjamin Moore. (I also plan on waxing it but haven't gotten to that yet and at this point probably won't until we are settled in our new place.)<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3564DMrrfP6kDcnw-gBG8sCLIL55KzCXN08bGT0xDZnZUAiGsU3JvrWlDsfWk0jRTyM6b1EQWCGrlOXTjuvzgEQq6KIzII8MqRKkYQ3IFeH44TsT25GUdaVe6sGcab2Bhy9xPOF-e7PKL/s1600/ttMay_571.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3564DMrrfP6kDcnw-gBG8sCLIL55KzCXN08bGT0xDZnZUAiGsU3JvrWlDsfWk0jRTyM6b1EQWCGrlOXTjuvzgEQq6KIzII8MqRKkYQ3IFeH44TsT25GUdaVe6sGcab2Bhy9xPOF-e7PKL/s640/ttMay_571.png" width="436" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Fortunately they didn't take too long to paint and just took two light coats.

Although I do like the fabric (and would use it in a bedroom) it wasn't what I had in mind for the seat. I was looking for something more muted with a lighter gray. Unfortunately though I decided to do this last minute so didn't have time to order any fabric online and just ended up running to both of the fabric stores we have here in town and this was the best option I could find that had gray and white in it. <br /><br />I have changed these cushions out quite a bit. I think this was the fifth or sixth different time I've recovered them. It such an easy and inexpensive way to switch things up and because it's easy I don't have to stress too much if we have a major spill.  You just lay the fabric down with the backside up and then center the seat on top of it upside down.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxMNg8XFIrqZ0VOnDoPnrmhvZllfw_7RxBJPz3atsIxFmbD-ri0aN7O1WDZIpv0qS-TF_h9JGh0Y-15hKU2NpVFkD3RK-zjO2ZOyfI5BI_R3Ej0_y-uk3CfqZduv_JbKm0yF7ZlZfyhfv/s1600/tMay_623.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBxMNg8XFIrqZ0VOnDoPnrmhvZllfw_7RxBJPz3atsIxFmbD-ri0aN7O1WDZIpv0qS-TF_h9JGh0Y-15hKU2NpVFkD3RK-zjO2ZOyfI5BI_R3Ej0_y-uk3CfqZduv_JbKm0yF7ZlZfyhfv/s640/tMay_623.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Then I trim around the fabric leaving enough space to fold it over the sides of the chair and allow at least an inch or two to be stapled. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhd0yZhuVpqiIvQ4WvmICiHF6mINhNN-daW4saMMZ33slRrxfhL0qDjLTlgc3os12F_LHzKcNqy_GwDHdBDPLAjCpP8HJTi3ffuNzIM5uo6eEwQC1BBweAA9XZaMjzokE2yAHNd4nda3J5U/s1600/tMay_626.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhd0yZhuVpqiIvQ4WvmICiHF6mINhNN-daW4saMMZ33slRrxfhL0qDjLTlgc3os12F_LHzKcNqy_GwDHdBDPLAjCpP8HJTi3ffuNzIM5uo6eEwQC1BBweAA9XZaMjzokE2yAHNd4nda3J5U/s640/tMay_626.png" width="436" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And then I start stapling. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqhYSF6sDrg3Ec2yqVsdX_ZKmyVtpkpM2yRjD0D8k9acWpVATSuFNDMRQcrtgKvk2Xb7ns7vLFVqlSbWV2bd5v9YYAPjJ3U7IIdq3-bHlpmOJ6qy4qBQjuzEMvU8TxP_Tt65s8AEIm5_Ta/s1600/tMay_628.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="272" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqhYSF6sDrg3Ec2yqVsdX_ZKmyVtpkpM2yRjD0D8k9acWpVATSuFNDMRQcrtgKvk2Xb7ns7vLFVqlSbWV2bd5v9YYAPjJ3U7IIdq3-bHlpmOJ6qy4qBQjuzEMvU8TxP_Tt65s8AEIm5_Ta/s400/tMay_628.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I kind of fold it like this as I got around the corners.

I found quite a few options that I loved but they were always way out of my price range. Well, a couple of weeks ago I ran into TJMaxx looking for something else and as I was racing through spotted these chairs. They weren't what I had in mind for the living room but they were really inexpensive for chairs this size! I kept staring at them - I LOVED the color (it's a tannish/grayish color that could go nicely with either gray or brown) and I liked the tufting but wasn't a big fan of the overall shape. The price was so good, though, that I decided to give them a try. I still have to admit I am not crazy about the shape but I've decided to go ahead and keep them because I don't think I'll be able to find anything else for that good of a deal and if somehow I do, then I could always try to sell these on Craiglist. And all in all I think the scale of them is so much better in here than the little ones I had temporarily in this spot and now those ones can go back to their home in the dining room. =) Please ignore the legs on them in these photos. I plan on at least painting them, but maybe even replacing them entirely with a different style leg. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
