weekend DIY

Here's a weekend DIY I did a few years ago, a pair of Swedish mid-century dining chairs whose original tweed upholstery was far too nubbly & tempting for the cats to keep their claws off.

After treating the wood & covering up scratches, I reupholstered them with bleached linen on which I'd printed a hand-drawn twig pattern in a deep slate blue. I am happy to report that the cats have since left them alone for the most part, except to nap on during hot, humid days.
