I loved both colors 😊 it would depend on what you want to match with.

[@karenmcneill-utecht3056]

Another easy and inexpensive way to upgrade upholstery is to purchase curtains. I bought 1 set at a dollar type door or Wally World for $10. I simply stapled over the old seat covers and they still look good 5 years later.

[@ecologytoday]

Living in a rural area, there are zero fabric options. I have learned to patiently hunt through the clearance areas to get deals. Thrift stores can have unused fabrics. Compare prices as some thrift stores have really high prices. Curtains and sheets at Giant Tiger's clearance have a whole range of fabrics for many purposes.(ie purses, shopping bags, masks, gift bags, upholstery, etc.) This week, I also got a selection of spring tablecloths on clearance at Walmart for $1.20 each. HINT: Clearance items frequently do not scan correctly. so take confirmation photos of any pricing, have patience to take extra register time and check your receipt carefully for correct pricing.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes, that’s also a great tip. You can find lots of fabric at the thrift store even shower curtains, bedsheets, so many possibili

[@nadinehupperetz8073]

I do the same thing all the time

[@juliebaldwin8730]

I used old blue jeans on mine they are sooo cute wish I could show you!

[@ryandekom]

Can you also use acrylpaint?

[@VROD2525]

Wasn’t convinced at first but then seeing the orange rust color was easily painted over I was convinced right there will do this for my project

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Glad you enjoyed. Thanks so much for watching.

[@maritzakincaid4303]

The best way I've found to remove all the fuzzies on the surface of a textile is to "shave" it with a disposable razor, works miracles. It's also the technique I use to get fuzzies off my knits like sweaters & hoodies.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes, I didn’t have one here at the cabin or I would’ve used it on this chair pads

[@tclark7802]

That is so cool! I had no idea that you could do that with fabric softener & paint. Thank you so much for sharing. 💕

[@debbiestyer453]

The first color reminded me of terra Cotta which could be great depending on ones decor. However I've got to say this video was fantastic. I want to paint a chair but was hesitant of the chalk paint method... your technique is what I'll try. Thank you.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

So easy and was fabulous. Thanks so much for watching.

[@pennisauer2121]

i had a love seat that had seen better days, but i loved the shape, so i tried to paint it. i used latex paint and added fabric medium. the couch went from camel tan to charcoal gray and has a leathery feel to it. it's been several years and it's still great. i'd do it again, but your fabric softener method would certainly be cheaper.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

It’s such an easy way to update, fabric upholstery. Glad you enjoyed.

[@sandylavigne7200]

Deidre, this turned out so amazing! I've seen Annie Sloan paint furniture with her chalk paint, but this looks so much easier! I have a wing back chair in dusty rose coloured fabric from 35 years ago. Needless to say it doesn't quite work for me anymore. I did buy some fabric to reupholster it but have ne er gotten around to doing it. This is something I will try instead and if I don't like the results than I'll go ahead and reupholster it (someday)! Thanks for this!😊

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I think you’ll be really happy with the results. I’m actually on the lookout for a wing back chair for my bedroom that I want to try this technique on.

[@helendanner5174]

Does she have a particular type of paint she uses?

[@sandylavigne7200]

@helendanner5174 She just used Behr water-based latex paint sample jars from Home Depot. Any water-based latex paint will work. You don't have to use anything special. Those sample jars are $5.00.

[@virtuallyglorious]

​@@sandylavigne7200Do you know what sheen she used?

[@laurathompson1007]

What wax did you use at the end? I plan to repaint a pair of cream stained club chairs. Do you think it'll work?

[@deborahdavey1743]

Tracy from the Sewing Channel gave us a great tip the other day. She makes quilts but it is good for any material. W🎉hen cutting snags and fluff off the top of material always use a set of curved scissors so you don’t risk actually cutting your material. I have not yet bought a set of curved sewing scissors, but I do have a set of curved manicure scissors that I use. Thank you for this lesson in painting cloth. Uncomplicated Great!

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Oh that’s a great tip. Thank you so much for sharing.

This is amazing. The chairs look beautiful and you would never know that fabric had been painted! I love it!

[@marsharay9867]

Thank you very much for this video! It gave me the information and motivation to paint a brown, ultra-suede recliner to match our decor. I’m finished painting, and I’m about to start waxing. The chair fabric is pliable, and it feels like genuine suede now. Thank you so much!

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I am so glad you enjoyed the video! It sounds like you did a fantastic job!

[@carriem7832]

I have been contemplating painting an old wing back recliner chair for our barn rec room / canning kitchen and I find your vlog….I’ve painted my sewing room office chair and stenciled it years ago….not liking the stiff fabric but still kept it… Now I can make this recliner a new look in the rec room….thank you.o

[@StormyOtt]

Diedre: I think this is absolutely fabulous! It's so refreshing to see that sometimes things don't always turn out like you originally thought. It's very comforting to know that things aren't perfect. You absolutely did the right thing in my mind to keep going and not redo the video. You are the best. And what an awesome idea to add fabric softener. This is definitely something I will try. I love your videos. Keep 'em coming.

[@ravenlunatic1177]

Wow, that turned out beautifully! So many tips & tricks packed into one video. I had no idea about using fabric softener. That’s genius! Buying fabric paint is so expensive. With your method there’s no breaking the bank! The blue was definitely the better look to go with, though you’d probably have been able to use the orange if you darkened it with some black. That might have created more of the look you were going for. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your gorgeous dining set. When your friend sees it she might just want it back!😂 Cheers from FL😺

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yep they turned out fabulous and I’m really happy with him. Easy technique.

[@jessicascharer7133]

I am IN LOVE with this technique. It was so easy, the paint goes such a long way, it smells fantastic haha, is soft and playable, looks like leather and the color stays true! I purchased an antique sofa set at a thrift store with the intent to "DYE" the material black (to make them gothic and resell) after another tutorial I saw. It came out terrible. It was brown no matter how many passes I did, streaky, stinky, and laborious - it took days and looked terrible. With this process I was able to FINISH both side chairs in a half day, the material is blacker than black, soft to the touch - I am so impressed! I even left them out in the back and the morning dew just beaded up. Love love love and I can't wait to flip more furniture with this process. ❤❤❤

[@OurUpcycledLife]

That’s excellent

[@geralyn-mm]

Beautiful blue with that wood and style - classic. You scored with that magnificent dining set.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

It’s absolutely gorgeous I love it

[@lindawatts5260]

I’m gonna do it! I’ve got two perfectl designer chairs, 10 yrs old never used. I like them but not the color so I’m gonna change with your method . If it doesn’t turn out I’ll give to bargain store, worth a try. Painting cushions is one thing but a chair & ottoman is another. I’m up for the challenge. I painted a suede lamp shade and it turned out beautiful. Crossing my fingers and saying a prayer it turns out as good as the shade did. Linda from Pensacola, Fl

[@OurUpcycledLife]

So glad you enjoyed the video. Have fun with your project.

[@tinkertailorgardenermagpie]

So interesting, about the fabric softener! I think that would work great for a complicated upholstered piece. But for dining chairs, it would be easier & cheaper to just recover them w/thrift store or discount fabric (look at window/shower curtains too)!

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Yes you sure could

And it looks gorgeous a couple years later, sun doesn't fade it. It's just not soft that's for sure.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Glad it was helpful!

[@caldwellfisher5288]

I did an arm chair with this method..extra time to dry and all the tips used...the chair was heading for the tip anyway so worth a try....the sanding down part (using a light low grit) just frayed it more than it was. 4 coats of black on light blue. lighter thinner touch each time. Chair looks sort of new but feels like slightly rubbery cardboard. Its an obvious cheap fix when you sit in it, not sure if thats not worse than when i started. .

I work at Lowe’s in the paint department. Those little sample sizes have no primer in them. I’ve literally put some on the wall and wiped it right off with a baby wipe. Just be careful as this color will most likely transfer.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Ok great to know.

[@loisruthstrom8143]

These chair pads turned out beautifully in blue!! I have seen a whole wing chair that was painted, but the paint was not even and it felt painted! I also saw a television DIY program, where a couple tried to paint their sofa, which also did not turn out. Evidently it's easier to get an even coat on a smaller surface.

[@OurUpcycledLife]

I am unsure I’ve only used it with latex paint. That’s unfortunate that you have that allergy you would just have to test. It may be with an acrylic paint and see if it works for you.

[@nanapapawood6952]

@@OurUpcycledLife Do you think acrylic paint would work just as well?

[@happy.homestead]

Do you know if the fabric softener and paint was used on say, a pillow, would it last through a wash cycle? The idea is fascinating, but I'm wondering if there are limitations. The blue looks so much better and you got a beautiful dining set for an amazing price! I always enjoy your videos. Thanks so much.

You would have to test that I am not sure I have only just used a little bit of hot soapy water to wash mine after and it held up fine, but I’m not sure about putting it through the washing machine

[@nanapapawood6952]

Love this. As a complete novice your video has opened up some many opportunities. It’s exciting that you can use latex with fabric softener. I do have some questions I hope you’ll answer. What was the paint sheen you used and suggest? How long would you suggest for a dry time? How long before you apply the wax and what’s the drying time for it to completely dry/set? Does the material still retain the softness with the wax?

[@fiddlerontheroof4942]

I also would like to see the answers.🤔

[@OurUpcycledLife]

Are used a eggshell finish but you could use any type the drying time will depend on your heat and humidity in your home when you do it so it’s hard to say how long it will take and I let it all dry overnight and then apply the wax and then I put the chairs together the day after that and yes, it all retained it’s softness even after the wax was put on and I have had no issues since I did this project

[@shoshomoha]

A nice change, and blue was the perfect color to match the color of the chairs, but why do you upholster it with fabric, which is easier and perhaps more practical? I like to know

[@OurUpcycledLife]

You could definitely just reupholster, but I didn’t want to take the chairs all apart and re-staple all new fabric and I couldn’t really find anything that was perfect so just painting in the meantime and maybe down the road I’ll end up changing it with some fabric
