It all started in August. I bought this vintage Ethan Allen couch for $35. Awesome bones, plenty of squish, just dated fabric. I honestly spent 50-60 hours on this project. I ripped the VERY well tacked fabric off. I stripped the legs with citristrip that I had around. I covered it with a $20 painter's canvas using some staples and some furniture tacks I bought. For ~$60 and a ton of time, I have the couch I envisioned for our living room.
Here's the after:
And the back. I really should have pressed the fabric, the wrinkles will smooth out eventually. Now to tidy up the living room to get it back to a non chaotic state....
Looks great!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat job Jackie!!
ReplyDeleteYou rock, girl! Perfect spot for curling up with a good book-and a cat.
ReplyDeleteLooks great! If you mist it with a spray water bottle it will relax the wrinkles :) I would also spray it with some scotchguard to reduce stains. Great job!!!
