Lesson one learned: listen to other people that have reupholstered! I read a post from All Things Thrifty about leaving the original fabric on the arms of the chair. I however took mine off and had a WONDERFUL time trying to get it back one. again, lesson learned. Next came the cushion seat. I swear that was going to be the death of me. But I finally got it taken care of and I think it looks pretty good. So some wonderful comments would be soooooo appreciated!!! Thank you! now enjoy the fruits of my labor!
