before & after | French Provencial Chair

I couldn't pass up this chair when I discovered it in a garage last month. I'm pretty sure the guy thought I was crazy when I asked about it but I saw it's potential and took it home with dreams of a transformation.

So after some TLC, a bit of trim and pretty fabric my vision came to be...

And now it's available in my space at Mercantile Antiques...
