Villain's Playhouse

Anyone remember Chairy from Peewee's Playhouse? Ah, those were the days. Well, here is my new pet chair. J bought it for us last night and I decorated it this afternoon with a new stencil.

Before:

I still have to do the opposite sides of the cushions, but other than that, stick a fork in this turkey, it's done!

Today's Secret Word: cat

(remember, scream real loud!)

Wow! You do great work! I would never have thought to buy a plain *white* chair or couch and do that. Makes that plain creme futon cover scream for the same treatment ;-) Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful. I'm not getting the secret word - but I like the chair!

On Peewee's Playhouse, he had a secret word every week that, when your parents or whoever said it during the day, you were supposed to scream. Hehe

I love both the chair and the couch from the other day. :)
This isn't a slipcover, though, right? Did you print it on the chair itself? That's amazing!

Yep, I printed right on the chair itself. This means I will have to Scotchguard the hell out of it. The cushions and slipcover I can iron to heat set, but the chair is a bit of an experiment...

Amazing! I love the set of these together!

I have a vision of you standing over the chair with an iron, giggling maniacally. This is rather funny, for some reason. :)

I happen to have two of those chairs [in white] that I inherited from a friend. I absolutely love your idea and may have to steal it. May I ask what kind of paint or ink you used?
