Turn an Old Wooden Chair into a Great Hanging Wall Shelf

Описание: Here I’ll show you how I upcycled an old wooden chair into a decorative modern hanging wall shelf with a paint was finish.

Think up cycling is just for farmhouse style? Think again! I’m sharing my clean, modern vision for up cycling right here.

This is a great project for anyone who wants to give an old piece of furniture new life, or for anyone who wants to add a unique and stylish touch to their home decor.

BONUS: My friend Cindy, of Reinvented Delaware, joined me in this challenge. Both up-cycling old wooden chairs. I gravitate to a cleaner, modern style and Cindy loves vintage farmhouse! Let’s see how our two chair upcycles turned out.
