I'm a stocker.
Of craigslist. What were you thinking?
I've been searching for "new" chairs for awhile. This week I found a set!
They were only $30 for both!
They're clean and in good shape.
But mauve? No thanks!
I plan on making slip covers from canvas drop clothes, a la Miss Mustard Seed. Ok, and the rest of the blogosphere...
Here are some of my inspiration pictures:

| I like how this one looks a grain sack. |
 |
| Love the ruffle, grain sack look & monogram |
 |
| Perfect example of what mine could look like. |
My sewing skills are at the beginner level, so I hope I'm not biting off more than I can chew! I know I'll be spending lots of time watching Miss Mustard Seed's how-to videos.
I couldn't do the mauve either. I've never been brave enough for slip covers or upholstery. Can't wait to see the chairs' new clothes!
