16 Chair Makeovers With Paint, Stencils, and Design Transfers

January 31, 2021
I love upcycling chairs, even these little metal child's folding chairs.

I am also sharing 15 other chair upcycle projects that I have completed in the past!

After washing the chair with hot soapy Dawn Dish Soap water, I brushed on a couple of coats of Dixie Belle Chalk Finish Paint in Midnight Sky.  Midnight sky is a black navy blue.

I used a foam brush.


I pounced on the stencil in two parts, Chateau across the chair back and the rest of the stencil on the seat. I chose Dixie Belle Chalk Finish Paint in Drop Cloth for the lettering.

I sealed the paint and stencils with Dixie Belle Easy Peasy Spray Wax.


It's adorable!

I like to hang folded folding chairs on the wall like a sign!  Especially child's chairs.

I think I will be adding this one somewhere at my house.

I also used the French stencil on the top of an old picnic basket.

I used Fusion Mineral Paint in Ash for the lettering.  

Now for the other chair makeovers:















Time to look for more chairs!  Thanks for visiting!
