5 DIY Projects To TRANSFORM Old Chairs!

Upcycling has become so popular for so many reasons. But I really think people love to save the money AND use something that is already just sitting there screaming for a new purpose!

So, I have collected (from Pinterest) some of my most favorite “Chair to Bench” transformations along with tutorials for you to do at home!

Bench #3) Kindall has been collecting chairs from all over – finding some for a little as $2. And as you can see, they don’t have to be in perfect condition…just need to be loved!

Bench #5) Love this curvy bench idea – so chic!

Tammy found these three chairs in an alley. And they were just what she had been looking for! Per Tammy, the arms and legs had to be adjusted but all in all, she was thrilled! Go to her site, Deja Vue Designs for more information and be inspired!

I hope you enjoy these ideas and are ready to hop into action and get started on a new project. I know I am! My mind is already spinning with what sort of chairs to be on the lookout for a bench for the backyard! YAY! I love projecting. 🙂
