Found it at a consignment store for 40.00 I saw another blog that redid hers and asked her about it. It sounded simple enough to redo. So glad I did it. Love the internet, Its amazing how much knowledge is shared.

Good job on the re-covering |
I used staples for the fabric and gorilla glue to hold the trim which hides the staples. it took a while to dry so I used sewing pins to hold it. I am not sure if glue stick would be strong enough to hold the trim on the chair. Since it would get a lot of use.

I posted this before but the link did not work and was asked for a picture so here is the after....

You're a 'pro.'

Love it - very pretty. I bought a rocker at an auction a few years ago for $10. Recovered it and it is beautiful. I found out later that the rocker is over 100 years old and is worth some bucks! I have been offered $200 for it, but I can't part with it. Love good finds.

It is beautiful - you did a great job on it!
