Found this caned bench for the foot of my bed to put pillows on. It was at the antique mall where I have a booth. I have to quit finding stuff there or I'll not make any money. It had a red polka dot fabric on it and I hoped the caning under the seat was in good condition, but it wasn't.
I went to a fabric store. Haven't been to one in decades so I was shocked at how much there was to choose from. Overwhelmed. After searching through thousands of bolts, I found this map fabric and the fabric I used on my new caned chairs. Don't have a clue why the map fabric spoke to me. I cut the fabric wrong and barely had enough to staple around the bottom.
By the way, I found an old majoilica plate at the mall for $10.00. I couldn't turn that down.
It will sit here until I bring all the chintz and majolica to the city. I want to stick with my new mantra, nothing bigger than a breadbox. I really do.
