I had never done this kind of thing before.

Wow, I am impressed with your upholstery skills! This chair looks so professional! I have started to upholster two vintage chairs and I hope mine can turn out this nice :)

Yah, I really want to paint it too, but my Hubby has a fit when I paint wood. This one I want painted black. (& distressed, as always)
