Nursery chair

I rehabbed an old Ikea chair of Tim's for the nursery. It doesn't rock, but it's kind of bouncy. I wish I'd taken a "before" picture... it looked like the photo, except the cover was super dirty and faded. The frame was kinda scratched in places, but in good condition.

I disassembled the pads and tossed the black fabric. Then I made a new cushion from red canvas and the previous cushion's foam rubber and cotton batting. It is kinda stiff-looking, but hopefully will loosen up once it's been sat on for a while.
