Artist Restores and Repaints an Antique Chair With Finn & Jake From the Television Series ‘Adventure Time’
Artist and redditor reallylovely acquired an antique chair, restored it, and then repainted it with characters from Adventure Time. She really tied the piece together by painting an overly excited Finn on the backrest and placing a fabric image of Jake the dog napping on the seat cushion.
I found this chair at an antique shop, it was pretty solid, just missing the seat. I cleaned, sanded, primed then painted the design with acrylics. I also added a few coats of glow-in-the-dark paint to his hood and his socks. Then I sealed it about four times. For the seat, I used felt, and hand-embroidered the details of Jake’s face. For the dream bubble, I used a small piece of Adventure Time printed fabric which I bought online. After this photo was taken, I added a clear plastic layer to the seat to protect the design and allow it to actually be used as a chair (but I mostly made it as art).
