Upholstered Bench To Match My Bar

saving the wooden chest that was broke but in the family for many generations.
the first thing I did was make it structually sound again. next I glued the sheer fabric to the sides upon drying I painted it all black. It is of a sweeping floral design but elegeant. to upholster the top I took a body pillow covered it with the chosen fabric and then staple gunned it all in place. to hide the staples hot glue ribbon around it all. tip when upolstering...keep it taunt as you go and go from the middes out from side to side around as you go.
