Lightening Bolts

"After" chair cushion

"Before" chair seat

In progress painting fabric

I was asked a while back where I got the lightening bolt fabric for the chairs in my living room. And since I am procrastinating on an annoying project today I thought I would finally get around to showing how I made the fabric. I used contact paper and measured and cut the bolts out and then painted an upholstery weight fabric with acrylic paint. A little labor-intensive but it worked :)

Old Brand New has a house tour on Apartment Therapy, so cool :)

Hi Rike and thank you! Yes, the Home poster is my design. I took this photo to list in in the shop about a year back but brought it back out to show the chair :)
