I forgot that my mom reads my blog, and let it slip that I was recovering the chair. Whoops! I meant to keep the whole thing under wraps until it was done and then send her a package marked “Do not open until I am on the phone” with all the before/after photos. So I could hear her “OMG What did you do?!” But since I killed all that, here are the fabrics I’m considering:
The fabric in the background is the one I think I’m going to go with. Its kind of a microfiber-like material, and it’s really soft. Plus it comes kinda quilted, which is nice. I need to figure out how to make fabric buttons, and I’ll be set!
The one with the “diamonds” on it was a second choice. I like it, but I think the “fuzz” might rub off it eventually. I don’t want reupholster this again if I don’t have to.
The top fabric is what I was thinking for an accent pillow. I made a few t-shirt pillows years ago, but I never liked them, and never used them, so why not cover them?
PS: John hates all of the fabrics. He thinks they’re hideous. Ah well. I bet he wants me to cover it in black fabric. Hello cat hair catcher!

The
National Association of Home Builders have estimated that since 1970, the average home has increased in size 2300 square feet, an increase of 55 percent. Alot of that new space is the outdoor room, otherwise known as your patio.
It’s important to note that expenses for your patio can actually increase the value of your home as you recoup your investment by up to 72 percent of expense, yet increasing the worth of your home between 5 to 10 percent.
However, patio expense shouldn’t always be tied to value. Whatever you wish to spend for your outdoor room should firstly depend on what you want to do with your patio. Since your the homeowner, your patio should reflect what you desire, while keeping an eye on your rate of return.
So before you go patio shopping, think about what you want to achieve for yourself and your family.
Do you want to relax?
Do you want to entertain?
Do you want to reflect your interior decor?
Do you want to create a whole new environment?
Do you want furniture, or a shade structure?
Since patio living is moving more towards an all year round event, it’s important the you consider what you do with your patio.
All-year outdoor living. Alfresco entertaining and unwinding are increasingly year-round options with the popularity of patio kitchens, compact hot tubs and exterior fireplaces, say industry analysts.

So keep an eye for good investments, but first invest in your home, not your return.
