I started off with an arm chair from our old dining room set.
It was perfectly fine but I want to put this chair in our sitting room which is whites and tans.
I took advantage of the nice weather (low 50’s in December) and I spray painted 2 coats of flat white followed by sanding the edges with a fine sandpaper. You can’t really tell but this chair is nicely distressed. I then recovered the cushion with canvas from the fabric store that was on sale for $4/yard.
