Decoupage Chairs

Sorry it's been a while since I last added a blog post. I've been a busy bee!

It all started back in April with an old unwanted pine chair and rather than just paint the chair I wanted to do something different - then I thought Decoupage!

Using a couple of vintage Marvel comics and lots of time and patience the Superhero Chair was born.

This full decoupage chair went to 'Spring into Vintage', an event organised by the Vintage Suitcase at the Dome, Buxton and found a new home.

Time for some more decoupage . . .

This time is was Captain America's turn.

Using Annie Sloan Aubusson Blue paint I first painted the chair and then rather than full decoupage chose just to use images from more vintage comics on the seat part of the chair.

I now rent a space at Olympia House Antiques, Chesterfield and you guessed it - this chair found a new home too.

With these chairs proving to be popular, and after being able to get two more similar unloved pine wooden chairs I decided to again paint, then decoupage the seats on these two chairs.

The next two pictures show the seat area in more detail - I used more vintage Marvel comics for these.

Marvel is proving to be a popular trend at the moment. I think this might be due to a lot of the upcoming movie releases, and personally being a closet fan myself it's great artwork to work with.
These chairs are currently looking for their forever home.
