I’m going to show you a quick and easy way to paint your upholstered chairs without removing the upholstery.
My client didn’t want to listen to the interior decorator and decided to have the chairs painted in this lime green color and then had the upholsterer attach the fabric. Low and behold the color combination clashed with her home decor. So who does she call? Yup, you guessed it, ME…. Cheryl to the rescue.
The quickest way to solve the problem and paint the upholstered chairs was to use chalk paint. I did this for two reasons.
Reason #1: It was impossible to sand and prep the chair with the fabric still on them and chalk paint doesn’t need any prep.Thank goodness for chalk paint!
Reason #2: chalk paint dries really fast so I was able to apply two coats in the same day.
