So I got me some more fabric and got my 38 magnum staple gun and got to work! Practice really does make perfect!
This pic is the before and after, the green is the new fabric and that dirty chair on the right is the before, I'm too embarrassed to show you the entire chair (what the hell? I just posted and the pics aren't even in yet!) anyway on with the post,
This is the remaining fabric and the covered chair, 3 more to go!
here is a closeup of my handiwork!
This is fun! I'm off to do the others and find more stuff to staple!!
Here's an update on the dining chairs, I see improvement from the first one I did, do you? It was all because of your encouraging words, believe me!

So what's next? Watch out Trinidad - there's a mad upholsterer on the loose.
Now I wish I'd had a go with my old dining set - I hated my chairs for years but now we have a new ones.
BTW one of our local schools went to Trinidad on a visit to explore the country and culture. Had a great time acording to their newsletter.
