My Dining Room Chair Reupholstery project!
I bought fabric from The Fabric Mill in Plainview and re-did my dining room chairs! So easy and the fabric was less than $50!!
Before:
A cream on cream stripe that you can't really see!
After:
It's a red fabric with gold dots on it.

This came out great!
I did this too in my old apartment and it was really fairly easy with a good staple gun. And what a difference it makes.

My mom helped, so I would recommend having a helper and like Goobster said, a good staple gun.
Cut the fabric so you have some extra on each side, staple one side, pull the other tight, and then staple that side. I did the corners last.
If you screw up, just remove the staples and try again!

Another tip: Make sure you staple from the middle first on each side-this is how you avoidfwrinkles. Looks great!
