DIY: Cute Spring Chairs
Aren't these chairs adorable for spring? These are another one of Martha Stewart's beauties. You could do this with any size or shape chair back, as long as you can find paper big enough.
Tools and Materials
Chairs (ones in picture are available at Ikea)
- Craft paper
- Pencil
- Craft knife (or scissors)
- Cutting mat
- Sturdy patterned paper
- Decoupage glue
- Foam brush
- Bone folder
Decorative Chair Backs How-To
1. Unscrew chair back. Lay it on Craft paper. Trace outline with pencil (press chair back against paper as you trace to account for curve).
2. Cut out template with craft knife, using a cutting mat.
3. Place patterned paper facedown on cutting mat. Place Craft-paper template on top, and trace. Cut out.
4. Attach paper to the back of the chair with glue.
6. With bone folder smooth out and get rid of any bubbles.
5. Let dry.
