Amazing Chair Makeover {plus GIVEAWAY}

/ Wednesday, February 1, 2012 /
Note: This giveaway is now closed.
Winner will be announced Friday Feb. 10, 2012.

A few days ago I was contacted by Simply Spray Fabric Paints to do a product review. 
I was so excited!! I've talked about painting upholstery on this blog before but I had yet to try it myself. Simply Spray Upholstery Fabric Paint has been featured on the Today Show and is the ONLY non-toxic aerosol paint for upholstery.

The victim...


This poor guy has been sitting in the garage for a while now waiting for an opportunity to shine!
I gave the fabric a good scrubbing with some soapy water,
and cut off a few odd strings on the back rest. I set it outside in the sun for a couple days to make sure it was good and dry. 
Since it is going to be in Jocelyn's room and she loves purple I decided to go with the plum.
It only took a couple coats of paint before I got the perfect shade of purple.
{*Tip - I used straight pints to pin the piping back so that I could spray in the creases.}
I then painted the wood a bright white. 

And the results...
And here is a side-by-side view of the two photos.


Jocelyn LOVES it!!!
And so do I.
The paint did not stiffen the fabric at all!!! This was so much easier than re-upholstering the chair and it is the perfect addition to Jocelyn's room. I've got a few more can's of paint and a few more projects on the way that I can't wait to share with you. This stuff seriously is amazing!!
Upholstery paint is the perfect option for transforming sofas, chairs, curtains, carpets, lampshades, and even place mats. 
Simply Spray also has Puff Paint, Stencil Spay, Spray Blood, and many more.
You can find Simply Spray Fabric Paints on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
