there’s something about the combination of grey and pink that i just love so when i saw this submission from d*s reader amy, i couldn’t resist. amy found this chair for $10 at the last chance thrift store in decatur, georgia and decided to restore it on her own. she scored some great fabric for $3 at her local fabric store, some coral paint from home depot and upholstery tacks and screws to finish things up. since the existing straw seat was spent, she created a new bottom with plywood (painted sea blue) and glued on the upholstery tacks to add some texture. with the fabric she created a pillow to use as seat padding and voila! a new chair for just under $30. great job, amy!
