Thrift Flip: Cane Chair
I believe there are two types of people in the world. Those who take things at face value, and those who see what could be. Of course I’m not trying to get too deep and philosophical, I’m only talking about home decor! While browsing a local Habitat for Humanity Restore, I came across a cane back arm chair. Now this guy had seen better days, but I couldn’t help imagining what a coat of paint and some new upholstery could do for him. Of course there was no price on the chair, just my luck, so I had to track down an employee. Knowing I was planning to make it over, I wasn’t really in the market to spend much on it. When the owner said he’d give it to me for $5, I didn’t hesitate!
As you can tell, the wood was pretty banged up and the velvet upholstery was outdated. I started off by unscrewing the seat from the frame of the chair. I have the entire chair including the cane a coat of Waverly chalk paint in the color ink, which is a matte black. While that dried, I got to work uncovering and then recovering the seat. I chose a neutral linen like fabric for the seat as a way to contrast the dark frame of the chair. I could not be happier with the results!
This may be one of my absolute favorite thrifted projects I’ve ever done! Just a few simple steps completely transformed this piece, and I am certain I will have it in my home for many years to come.

Current project
12/09/2022
I really should have stopped working on it half and hour ago and gone to bed as I have a school assessment and practice exam tomorrow. But anyway here is my current project. I thrifted this skirt and knew I wanted to make it into one of those micro mini skirts. After trying it on though, it was immediately clear I needed to alter it to fit wayy better. You can see in the pics below just how rectangular it is. Anyway I started with some darts at the back, they were only a little messy but weren’t enough. So I moved on to reducing the waist band. Which I immediately messed up. Finally got it to the correct size today though!!! It has some incredibly messy top stitching I am going to return to later. But now that this is correct next time I get the time I plan on focusing back on the actual main skirt section.
first picture: skirt laid flat
second picture: close up of horrible top stitching on the waistband
However we persevere for what we care for
