Teacher Chair

Poor chair. This picture doesn't do it justice.
A few years ago, when I lived nearby a Salvation Army store, I came about an old director's chair. It was shabby and worn but still had that great sturdy quality that comes with older furniture. I bought that chair for the tag price of $5 and have not regretted a single penny I've put into it. I took out a couple of screws to paint the foot rest with chrome spray paint and reupholster the cushion with red velvet remnant. I painted the body of the chair with black spray paint after a light scrub with sandpaper. Voila! A beautiful chair that you wish you can sit when running around the classroom.
