Recliner Redo

I have been planning this project for about a year. Yep. A YEAR. That is about how long it took to get just the right fabric...

Feast your eyes.

I re-covered one (planning on doing the other one soon) of the recliners we bought for the boys a few years ago. I am sure you would all be shocked to know that boys are pretty rough on chairs...and toys...and dressers...and houses...

The one on the left is the old version. We just loved these when we saw them. That monkey fabric is the cutest thing since dimples on a baby. But, fast forward two years and what you have are two ripped, stained, lopsided monkey chairs.

I love how it turned out. I changed the back cushion by excluding the four buttons (they were the first thing to rip). Now it is a full, fluffy lump of softness. They boys have been arguing over who gets to sit in the new one.

Note to self - the camera preview window is not a good judge of how clear your pictures are. 

I will try to work on my photography skills for future posts ;o)
