Glider Makeover

I realized I never showed my Glider Makeover on my blog, and I am still so in love with it after about 6 months of having it this way.
Let me first show you the before....This glider has been around a long time, it was Chad's moms first, and she had already made these slip covers for it. As you can see, it had been colored on and all manner of things had made their way to the not so attractive covers.
First we spray painted the chair with white to cuten it up a bit.
Then my hubs found this great fabric, and I made new covers using the other slip cover as a template. I used buttons instead of a zipper which just makes me happy. You can see my covers are a little tight, I've said it before-I'm not expert seamstress! But they work great!
I felt pretty proud of myself for figuring out how to do all of this on my own-isn't that just pretty?See how it just fits so lovely on the chair-not bad for my first time around on reupholstering something huh? (Don't answer that if you are an expert, I'm sure you can see many mistakes!)Here she is all done, and pretty. This chair makes me smile every time I walk into my living room. Someday it might make its way into a baby's room, but for now, I like it being the center of attention!
