Reimagined Monday: Chaise Making A Statement With Painted Upholstery.

Today's Reimagined Monday has a special twist at the end.  But first, here is a fabulous example of how to neaten up an upholstered piece that needs a little love.  Chalk Paint™ by Annie Sloan to the rescue!
Bought this chaise lounger for cheap cheap- fabric wasn't clean and no matter how many times we tried and countless cleaning products later....( we spent more money trying to clean it/ steam clean it than we paid for it!!!)
Picture
I've seen many tutorials that swear painting fabric is easy- including my much loved Annie Sloan.  So I did it.

I purchased the 1 qt size from Apple Box and then came home and worried. And shared my plan with my husband...... Who was doubtful it would work. Now we all know----- it's so much fun to be not only correct but have bragging rights!!!!

Anyway.... Before/during and After!!!
