woman vs chair - round 6

Another successful round in the fight woman versus chair. Last Thursday I was able to start stapling the fabric for the backrest back onto the chair. It involved using a pneumatic staple gun. So much fun! Next Thursday I have to attach the fabric on the backside of the backrest with an invisible tack strip. Not sure what the professional name for this strip is but I will find out on Thursday. Hopefully I'll be able to work on the seat as well. Anyways the chair is coming together nicely...

  3. Nina it looks incredible so far! I've never used a pneumatic staple gun but they seem like such a fun time. I think I'd want to staple everything once I had it in my hands, haha. Really, the chair is coming together wonderfully and I'm so impressed with your skills, and your enthusiasm in undertaking this project on your own! I'd probably send it to a shop to have done for me, but this way you get the satisfaction of knowing you did it yourself. It's almost done, too!
