Chair With Flair

,div>If you scrapbook, then you know that you always end up with random letters, either stickers or chipboard, or some medium, that you just don't have a use for. I am pretty sure there have been a million magazine articles written about how to use them. Well I think this idea from Better Homes and Gardens (the 100 decorating ideas under $100 issue) is my favorite use for old chipboard:


Glue it to a chair and spray paint over it! Beautiful! But probably not fun to sit on! I think it would be REALLY cute on a frame! Or a framed mirror!!

I don't scrapbook, but this makes me wish I scrapbooked! What a clever idea and I have the perfect chair to do this. A trip to Michaels may be on my list this week :).

How adorable! I wouldn't have enough of leftover letters tho... But for that price, I could buy more.

oh my word this is sooooo funny I love it and as a matter of fact i do have a ton of extra letters how did you know?? ha ha i think it is so true that every scrapbooker has this random stack.

I am not a scrapbooker, but I clipped this same photo out and stuck it in my idea file. Wouldn't it make such a cute addition to a children's play room or study area?

I think you'd skip doing the seat and just do the legs and back.... they'd surely hurt your butt. Imagine the imprints on your thighs when wearing shorts :D
