This is literally the easiest makeover I ever have done or probably ever will do. If you want fast and easy this is the project for you!

As summer comes to a close it's time to store your outdoor furniture. Why pile it in the garage when you can bring it in the house and make it chic and stylish in three easy steps?

The Design

I didn't want to have to sew anything. I didn't want to have to paint anything, though you certainly can if your furniture needs freshening up or you find a chair in a thrift store.

I simply wanted to add and fluff for a transformation! And that is what I did.

The Materials

  • Throw pillow to match your decor
  • First, wash your chair with simple soap and water and let it dry throughrouly
  • Touch up the paint if you absolutely have to but I was staging a house here and I just used it as I found it
