Chrome Diner Chairs Get a Major Refurb!

I have had this chrome diner set for about 2 years now. I have been meaning  to reupholster the chairs this whole time. I finally did it!
BEFORE!
faded and torn vinyl

First off, shine up that chrome! Little known trick, dip aluminum foil in warm water and BAM you have an instant chrome polisher.
from rust

 to shine

now to cover up the nasty vinyl with everything vintage.
for the chair pad 4 wonderful vintage upholstery chair covers found at a garage sale.

chair backs covered with 4 vintage place-mats and the back by vintage fabric all from an antique store.


And now all together!



I seriously LOVE these chairs more then I ever have! So excited to get the table shined up too!

Hope you enjoyed
Later Days
