I would sand it to bare metal and reupholster using my old feedsacks with great graphics.

This is what I was going to say. Or to strip the paint as mentioned below. It is just so cool except for that upholstery.

Recover the seat in a different pattern than the back pillow for a kick! Love this chair!

Bam. Done. And oh-so-cute!!!

As for this chair, it needs to be painted hospital white with the brackets on the legs in red. Recover the seat in drop cloth with the red cross symbol stenciled on it. Remove the fabric on the back and stencil ‘First Aid’ in the Courier font to the metal surface. Would make a great ‘Miss Doctor’ chair for a youngin. Have fun.
Cheers,
Miss Ellie

I have been too influenced by the comments that I have no creative ideas of my own! I have a submission for you as well… but I need to wait a few weeks since if I was selected, I would kinda have to follow through on the assignment!
