A while back, we inherited Brad's great-grandmother's dining room furniture.  We had the furniture refinished, but then we needed to recover the old chairs.  We found some really nice fabric that would go well in our kitchen.  Ultimately we knew that this table would fit better in our kitchen since it was a drop-leaf table.  The fabric also needed to blend in with our living room since the two rooms are so close, and it turns out some of the chairs are scattered throughout the living room.  Below is a tutorial on how we (Brad) recovered our chairs!
