It all started when I got this email from Goodwill a few weeks back when they announced the contest:
And boy do I love me a challenge with a deadline.
I won’t
So let’s cut to the visuals, the before and after of the Director’s Chair project:
Sure it was a little labor of love for two weeks (did I mention there were some Photography deadlines mixed in just for fun), but they’re done and I’m super proud and in love. I can’t believe the designs turned out better than I imagined.
Before I go further I did want to give inspirational credit where due- the batman chair inspiration came from this remarkable Etsy Seller.
Of course it isn’t an exact replica, I replaced out the buildings and omitted the windows and moved things around to fit my canvas. Either way, feel free to stop over there and check out the shop.
And here’s where I ask a huge favor. The voting opened today where you can vote for your favorite project (cough, cough please pick me!) on Goodwill’s Upcycle contest
- On mobile: click “View More” 3 times and the directors chairs are the last one in the first row.
- Browser: Scroll down 17th row and it is the 2nd one in.
Who knows I may do something special if I win, like give something away- so stay tuned. Oh and if you have any ideas on a giveaway- besides my first born or the house- send ideas away.
What do you think about the update? What are your favorite films? Do you like director’s chairs, maybe you have a thing for egg chairs instead?

Hi, there! Thanks for leaving a comment on our blog. I just have to say what a wonderful job you did on the upcycling. I love the Simpsons and Batman detail on the back of the chairs. :)
