Recovered doll chairs

JB and I decided we would try and recover the dollhouse chairs to match her new kitchen curtains. We thought about painting them, but decided to "upholster" instead. It was a lot of fun and really easy to do.
First, we found two chairs that we wanted to recover.



Second, we pulled the snap together pieces apart.



Then glued fabric that matched the curtains to the "cushion" sections of the chairs. We used tacky craft glue and were sure to wrap the fabric all the way around the edges of the pieces we were gluing.



After the glue dried, we simply snapped the pieces back together.
