I have been teaching school in this chair for at least a decade. I found it at a second hand store and loved the industrial look and feel. I think it must weigh about one hundred pounds!
Recently I thought about gettting a new office chair but when I tried out new chairs they didn’t seem all that much more comfortable than the one I had gotten used to. I had seen my very chair in perfect condition for sale in U.K. for £375, but mine was an eyesore. Really! Who would have such a thing in their house!? So I refurbished it and it makes me smile when I see it now.
I am a huge fan of gorilla glue and it did its gorilla job of gluing fabric to metal.
mine needed work!
Perfect one for sale in UK
I went with a little color for now...
I think my next little project will be an industrial style table, another terrific find at this UK shop.
I have a solid wood door that I would like to use for the surface and then these chunky legs will make the perfect table. Matthias already distressed the edge of the door when he took a saw to it years ago so it will come with distressed memories.
Love this post, Terri……and the chair makes me smile too. Great Job!!!
You know I can’t resist anything that is aqua blue. I just bought a whole gallon of paint in that color and nothing is safe. Jude may even end up aqua blue.
Can’t wait to see how the table works out.
