Retro Flower Fabric

Have you ever spotted some vintage fabric for a great price?
I found some green floral that was dated 1977.
It was an old handmade salon clothing guard,
 from what I could tell.
 
I tried my hand at fabric paint.  The fun chair image
was cut on my Cricut & I painted it twice for a good solid black.
 


 
I love this silhouette.  It's such a cool chair!
 
I pinned the fabric tightly around cardboard.

Bar Table

I rescued two matching bar tables out of a storage bus
at the local junkyard.  They were sturdy & had potential.
I loved the industrial looking base.
The tops were full of sticker residue,
 graffiti & black marker.

AFTER:

 
I talked my hubby into helping me make
tongue & groove tops.  They look like great
garden tables or rustic matching cabin decor!
 
I can't wait to dress it up outside with some
clay pots, a trowel, plant labels & more!
It's a shame we are expecting over a foot of snow
here in Minnesota again tomorrow. 
Will gardening season ever arrive?
