before and after

How about a little before and after today?

Well actually we're doing the 'after' before the 'before', & I'm hoping
that you've already gathered this, or I'm truly doing something wrong!
Here is the 'before'.
You know me. I had to have the pretty picture first!

And another 'after'.
With a little extra padding & some lovely new upholstery, courtesy of the Designers Guild Miami and Deltona collections, I think these rather tired old office chairs scrubbed up rather well.

  8. Amanda, you're a wonder! Those chairs are improved almost beyond recognition, and are beautiful. Look at that lovely neat piping, a really professional job. They are so much nicer than any office chairs I've ever seen for sale. I do wish you'd pop over and do mine.
