Shabby Chic Dining Chairs with a Beach Feel

Well, I am finally done with this set of 4 dining chairs!  I didn't think it would take as long when I began, but I am learning alot along the way.  The weather cooperated for a bit to allow me to get them all primered and painted, and I then redid the seat cushions.  New foam, batting, fabric etc.  My husband had earlier reglued joints, and I spent an excessive amount of time fixing the broken part of the back of one chair.  Finally done, it is barely noticeable and these chairs are sturdy enough to last another lifetime!  See what you think.

You did a terrific job. I love the fabric and the backs of the chairs. I am working on one chair that ended up being more work then I thought.

These came out beautiful! Love your fabric choice. I read your profile and it just struck me as exactly how I feel. Life just moves so fast! My oldest will be off to college next year and I wonder where the time went.
