While recently renovating my bedroom, a chair on the street caught my eye as something that would make a great addition to my bedroom if it just...looked a bit more presentable. If you have an hour or two on your hands to save a chair, this project might be able to save all of the chairs you find on the street. (Or maybe just that one you have sitting out in the garage).
How to upcycle a chair with stencils and paint:

Wipe all of the dust and dirt off of it with eco-friendly cleaner. If you're nervous about getting paint on the floor in your painting area, be sure to cover the flooring underneath the chair with newspaper or any other sort of paint shield.

If your chair in need of help is as desperate as mine was, you're going to have to repaint its base before laying down any stencil art.
