$10.00 kids black zip up jacket from Wal-Mart and $5.00 sweats (XXL-kids size-get the most for your money). The sweats would fit a small adult. Just to give you an idea of how much material you need. I cut out the pieces I needed to add to the jacket from the sweats. I stuffed the ears, spikes down back, and tail with stuffing from an old pillow. I put 3 layers of interfacing in the wings, and the tail. I had the white from an old t-shirt, the green from an old suit shirt, and the red from some red scrap material. Took me maybe 3 hours. Super easy, fast, and cheap!!

Paint your chairs for $49.00 instead of reupholstering

I painted both chairs for $40.00 instead of reupholstering them myself. If I found material for $10 a yard, I would've needed 5 yards for one chair, making the material itself cost me $100.00. This doesn't count my time ripping both chairs apart and putting it back together.

Sign me up!!!

1 Quart Behr battleship grey paint

Add 2-8 oz. bottles of fabric textile medium from Hobby Lobby

(mix it really good)

The chairs with the first coat of paint on them

Let it completely dry

2nd coat of paint

I sanded the chair material down after it was completely dried. It gave it a soft feeling to the chair.

Put a third coat on the chair, let it completely dry, and sand it down once again to give it that soft feeling you'd want to sit down and relax on. I also sanded down the feet to the chair, painted them white, and glazed them with a dark brown stain to give them an antiqued look.
