Nanny's chair


Last summer when we were clearing out my nan and grandads house, i inherited this chair. It always sat in my nans bedroom with her cushion in it. We decided it would be a lovely addition to the girls bedrom. It was but the poor thing had more use than it had had for a long time, possibly ever, and it broke. Keen to keep it i decided to put an MDF base on with a foam cushion and then staple the chosen material (laura Ashley) on top.

And yes we are very pleased with the results! It is now really sturdy and with a fresh coat of pink paint it matches the room beautifully and it will last for another good few years.
