Chair Restoration The Crafty Way

Recently I got a chair from my mum that had been a little bit (ok, quite a lot) damaged by her new puppy but since the chair was still in one piece and otherwise usable then I didn’t just want to throw it out. So I figured that if I can’t repair it then at least I can cover it : ) And with a little help from knitting the outcome is quite cute. So here’s what the chair looked like when it arrived:

And here’s my solution how to fix it:

The idea originates from pinterest, but I’m not that good in handicrafts yet to take on such a project, so just my yellow knitted patch will have to do : )

“Liebster is a German word, meaning dearest or beloved, but it can also mean favorite. The idea behind the Liebster Blog Award is that it is given to bloggers who have less than 200 followers in order to create new connections and bring attention to these wonderful blogs!”

I was really excited and happy to find out today that I have been chosen for the Liebster award by Diane at Mamal Diane. She is from Ohio and her blog is about gardening, cooking, frugal and simple living. So please go and pay her blog a visit : )
