Two of six

When we first arrived in France, I managed to reupholster two of our six dining chairs. Yesterday, two and a half years later, we started on completing the job. This time we are doing it together. We have taken two to work on in the atelier, and we have started on the slow task of removing the old staples and material.

The webbing on the seat of the chair is still good, but it needs tightening up. So we needed to take some of the tacks out, tighten the bands and tack them back again. Whilst Brian starts removing the staples and fabric from the second chair, I will clean this one, and start painting it. It’s a very slow process but I’m really glad we have started it, and it has made its way up the priority list.
